That good ole' lady Spring

Here is a picture of the new changepot. I have also taken a picture of all the money found since October (down below)- interesting perspective when you look at it altogether, ain't it??

Incredible. Wednesday's freak snowstorm crushed my yearly tulip bulbs. Guess I'll have to start planting all over again lol. Wednesday's storm was so unusual- first some rain, then loud thunder and lightning, and then flurries galore. The sky went titanium white, then earl grey, then back to cerulean blue in under three hours. Sign of things to come? Or perhaps someone asking M.N. for a sign- something to believe in.

Before anything else, I would like to give thanks for fifty things that exist in this world (more importantly, that mean so much to me). My universe would never be the same without them.

Hubby found a penny in Target while we picked up some easter goodies for Grandma. I am amazed at how this woman is so independent for her age (84). She's one tuff lady.
