Saw my first turtle (
tortise?) crossing the road this morning on the way to work. Saw another one on the way home.... there's a joke in there somewhere :-)
My neighbor's iris are blooming; ours are always weeks behind, because we're in the valley on a north slope I guess. Even though the jonquils have come and gone, not to mention the crocus and other early risers I've been thinking it's taking a
hella long time for the oak trees on the property to bud and leaf out. This weekend's rain must have spurred them on - the great oak on our back porch showed these off today: (my fat hand is there to give an idea of size - grin)
So are the stinking ants in my cabinets
a sign of spring also?
I completely emptied my spice cabinet
this afternoon when I got home and
sprayed it down. I've tried cinnamon
and mint but they keep showing up
so I went for the heavy duty stuff today.
And crickets! Where are all these critters
coming from and why aren't they staying OUTSIDE where they belong!!!
