I think I started this post Wednesday or a couple of days ago (of course I can't remember). Anyhow read on and I added an update for today.
I hope I spelled that right - what I might say is WINDY as in Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day. The weather has been a roller coaster ride lately. The last time I checked the bees (or I should say my one and only hive) was in December. I really try not to disturb them - just makes more work when they have to put their house back together. But with this warm and crazy weather we're having I will check them in the next day or so.
Daffodils are blooming, daylilies are coming up, hydrangeas are budding - it's early times but you can't do much about the weather. Yesterday I started cleaning my flower beds - not only are they full of weeds already but they're over full of plants. I need to do a little thinning and pass along some plants.
I have a mouse in the house! Yes, you would think with a dog and a cat in and out it wouldn't happen but that little mouse is smarter than me. I have sticky strips and I'll catch that little fella soon. Lily did take care of a possum night before last - I know that possum wasn't dead when I threw it over the fence but I couldn't kill it - yikes. She was gone the next morning - just lucky I went out and saved her life.
I have been quilting and trying to "tidy up" around the house and yard. It's a lot of work getting rid of stuff you have accumulated for years and years.
Take care my friends and enjoy every day.
So it's Saturday - the weather is wonderful. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 70's. I did check the bees today. They're doing fine, have plenty of food and working hard, lots of bees in the hive. I didn't change anything.
