| This photo is taken this morning as I was coming AROUND THE CORNER on this the FIRST DAY OF SPRING!!!!! |
 |
| Here was Beau at the allergy specialist this morning, with his mommy filling out a form behind him, as he looked around the corner! |
 |
| Here is another photo of Beau today taken on my new iphone. I was surprised he had no socks on even though it is super chilly outside!!! He was getting tested for allergies... which I am happy to report he has none that they could find today. |
 |
| Just AROUND the CORNER from another IDOL SHOW on TV! Tonight the top 9 sing songs of Lennon & McCartney... So that is a great song book to choose from. I'm still a big IDOL FAN and have been since the show began. |
 |
| Here are Jana and her kids here only one short year ago... the kids were eating popsicles then... Today is sure not a popsicle kind of day... looks like Spring was much closer to coming at this date last year! |
 |
| Last year on this date... Beau was wearing boots in the house... today he didn't even have socks on! I am guessing if these boots still fit him... he will be needing them a lot this spring! |
 |
| Some of my cards for EASTER last year... I am JUST AROUND the CORNER from this year's batch of EASTER CARD CRAFTING! HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SPRING! It is hard to really believe today is spring as I look out my window and see snow whirling around and around... in the mountains of snow we have everywhere. I was trying to get a feel for what the weather was like at this stage last year, and I know there was barely any compared to this date this year, but I am hopeful that SPRING is truly just AROUND THE CORNER! This morning I met Jana and Beau at the allergy specialist... to get him tested for allergies. I am happy to report that after today's visit he officially has none that have shown up yet. Beau was cute when I walked in the office, he instantly looked up and said "GRAMMA D!" then he went on to say "WHERE'S POPPA?!" I asked him where his socks were... and he told me he had none! Crazy little character...I think he needed socks on this very chilly wintery day. I asked him if his mommy brushed his hair, and he told me only his sister gets her hair brushed!!! Funny little guy! I then drove him to his daycare for the day as his mommy had to get to work. Later today I am picking the kids up from daycare and school and bringing them here for supper. I have a chicken stew cooking in the crock pot now... and it is smelling pretty yummy, if I do say so myself... and it will be good on this very chilly first day of spring. Earlier this week I enjoyed the new season opener of "Dancing With The Stars"... looks like we will have a great season around the corner this year! Tonight is the top nine American Idol show on TV ...and I look forward to that as well. They will be singing the song book of LENNON and McCARTNEY, so I will enjoy that I'm pretty sure, as I have always been a BEATLES FAN from way back! Also around the corner... is the Annual Lanigan Dance Competition, this weekend, and I am hoping this blustery winter weather smartens up so I can travel out to see some dancing and my buddy Linda and hang out with her for the weekend. Soon it will be EASTER, too... I need to get on my card crafting of the season... it will be here before I know it! This winter has been extra long this year... There is so much snow we are barried under... but truly everyone is over it now... so I pray that SPRING REALLY IS AROUND THE CORNER! I have done a little SPRING CLEANING... (and shopping!) to try to get me in the mood for the new season to come.... and that has been a good diversion from all the snow we are experiencing these days. On that thought... here is my rhyme of the day... SPRING is around the corner, but it has sure not sprung! Everybody's tired of snow, it's in the songs we've sung. We are barried under snow, but we're over it somehow, Easter's also coming soon... in less than 2 weeks, now. Tonight is the American Idol show again on TV... That will be a 'something' to look forward to for me. Tonight they're paying tribute to BEATLE songs we know... PAUL & JOHN'S great lyrics will keep our minds off of the snow! I have the family coming here for some supper too, That will also pick me up... I'm making chicken stew! Spring's around the corner, or at least that is our hope... We just have to 'vision' it for now as we all cope! Picture grass and daffodils on a bright and sunny day, It's just around the corner... YEP... soon it's on it's way! |
