It has been lovely the last few days with bright sunshine and a warmish wind. So I’ve been busy making the most of it, just in case we get snow again at Easter, it wouldn’t be the first time.
I’ve been hard at it in the garden and I’ve even managed to get around to painting the woodwork in Duncan’s old room which I’ve been putting off for ages. The paint tin boasts that it is one coat, quick dry gloss paint. Well, it isn’t and I’ve had to give it two coats, which took forever to dry out.
And you know what it’s like, as soon as you spruce up one part of a house it immediately makes everything else look shabby. The downside of the sun actually shining is that it makes the place seem – I have to admit it – manky!
So I’ve also been washing windows, inside and out. What an exciting life I lead. It should all help to keep me fit anyway. I did take some more garden photos though and I hope to have a garden blogpost tomorrow.
So jealous that you’ve been out in the garden. Our ground is still frozen. We did get a long way into melting the huge piles of snow last week only to get 4 more inches yesterday. Spring seems so close here but still so far away.
Stefanie,
It ‘s been great being able to get out to tidy up the place although I won’t be able to put any seeds in the ground for ages. Poor you, I think it would really get me down if our snow hung around as long as yours does, on the other hand you can rely on getting a summer! I hope it warms up soon for you.
I love the sun but it shining through my bedroom window showing me the cobwebs attached to the window frame. Not good. I had to get up immediately to sort it out!
Look forward to the garden pictures.
Jo,
I was mortified when I started to wash the insides of the windows. One of them was swathed with cobwebs at the top. My excuse is they are very tall windows and I don’t often look up that high!
