A Few Spring Projects For The Deck

We are finally having some warm days here in PA and it feels like Spring.
Time to prep the deck for some outdoor activities.
 I've recycled all my old throw pillows into one giant pillow for the deck.
 Our new pergola has been installed and is waiting for our first BBQ.
 My temple bells are hung
 and the Buddha statue is in place.
It's starting to come together nicely.
I'll be spending time reading, spinning yarn, and working on a little yoga here over the summer.
No vegetable garden for me this year.
How about you?

Spinning Around

Took some time out to play with my spinning wheel.
 Such a nice break from all the gardening.

Breathe

I woke up this morning and the first thing I saw was a note on the kitchen counter that said "Someone left the fridge open all night and there's water all over the floor".
 The first thing I thought was "OMG and WTF...
Why is this my problem???
I'm pretty sure I ate at Taco Bell last night."
Then I went outside,
felt the cool morning breeze,
and walked over to my garden.
That's when I remembered I'm the one who turned  off the fridge door alarm when I was putting the groceries away the day before.
I took a deep breath, came back inside, looked at my vacation in a jar,
and decided...If that's the worse thing that happens today, I'm luckier than most.
Take a breath and have a great day!
