Pick Yourself Up, Dust Yourself Off, And Start All Over Again....

Well, it's official...it's time to go back to work!  Things are finally starting to thaw out a bit....




The leeks in the pot are still alive....they look a little sad, but they are still alive!


Hello bucket....how did you get there?


 The ducks are acting frisky.....there's been a lot of squawking, posturing, and fighting.....



So I put out some seashell sand for them which they've been eating like crazy.....


And look!!!!! the first egg of the season!!!


I got pretty excited, did a little "happy dance", and made Mr. Adams take my picture.....


Beautiful....an egg is a gift...all wrapped up in a beautiful light green shell...


The days have been so sunny and nice that even Kitty has been more interested in going outdoors....


 There he is, watching me start a new project from the safety of the doorway.

Silly Cat.
