Spring is here so they say, just not in all parts of the country. Just when we were starting to thaw and the snow was leaving it is going to hit again. There is a light coating on the grassy areas, hopefully it won't accumulate to much. At least we don't have the flooding that they have in the Dakotas. Although it has been raining for 2 or 3 days previously we sit high enough that we won't flood. Now it is back to cold and snow.
Our deer are back, we were worried that the wolves might have gotten them but 6 showed up the other evening looking for some treats in the feeder.
Guess this would be a good time of the year to do that hated spring cleaning job. Some painting and furniture rearranging. Painting is my least favorite. We have a floor plan that is more like one hugh room, living room and kitchen and dining areas all open so once you start painting it just runs from one are to the next and seems like a never ending job, but the results are always worth it.
Maybe start an early spring garage sale if the weather will cooperate. I am in a cleaning mood and this is definitely something you have to be in the mood for.
Or maybe just curl up with a good book.

COULD SPRING BE HERE
After getting 12" of snow just a couple days ago, it is now 40 and we are slithering around in the mud. This is my least favorite time of the year, where the snow has gone it is just muddy. But in many places the snow is still deep but every day the piles go down and maybe in a week or so we will be able to see the grass. Even the little dog has to pick and choose where she walks.
All the deer we were feeding have disappeared. Must be some wolves in the area, that usually scatters them. We have around 300 acres of state land that connects with our land so we get all sorts of wildlife here. Had a good size bear one day inspecting our boat. At the time we still had 4 dogs, We were standing outside watching the bear with three dogs standing behind us barking at the bear and the fourth dog was running at the bear trying to scare it off.
Last year we got two late snow storms, let's hope that doesn't happen this year and winter has left.
