It’s looking more like spring every day around here. Several of the early blooming bulbs have made there appearance. I even had a nice mess of asparagus for dinner yesterday. It was so good and tender. I plan to make a couple of rhubarb pies from my garden today. One for a friend, and the other for Chuck and I. We have been having some cool weather, but no freeze yet. Mostly a lot of high wind. If we can hold off the freeze until a little while after Easter we will be safe. It came a hard freeze last year after Easter. The fruit trees are all doing great so far. The lawn man will be mowing my yard tomorrow. I am so anxious to get everything taken care of outside. It has been a lot of work trying to clean, everything up that had collected since last summer, and watering the dry grass and flowers. I finally am beginning to feel vindicated from not doing it at the end of last fall.
My day seems to be starting off great today, after a trying one yesterday. I have done some work on three different paintings. After writing this blog I will make the pies, and start dinner. I will never understand why some days are so encouraging, while others can be so discouraging even without any real reason. We just have to wait it out, and usually it doesn’t last very long. Those kind of days do cause me to sleep very little. I just can’t seem to get sleepy even though I am not worried about anything. I believe it’s called anxiety which means I need to get busy instead of going to sleep. Nature has a way of helping us to get our work done, even though we may have fallen into a rut. I know I will be lifted out, so I just try to relax and think about a vacation I am fixing to take. A new day always brings new hope for all our anxieties.
I got another invite to a dinner through the mail today. I am so anxious for this event, but I must be patient and wait for the time to come. I am loving it when I get invited to something, especially a nice dinner. I make sure I post it on my calendar. The invite was to an appreciation dinner for members of The Museum Of The Plains. I just recently became a member so naturally I am excited to see what I have signed up for. The museum is very large in footed space, and has grown every year since it opened. It not only is large, but is filled with interesting items of history. A kitchenette is large enough for a catering service to serve up to a hundred or more people. The dinning area is spacious also. Several special events through out the year are held there. I love crowds and excitement, so I am glad to have become a member of this nice organization. I need lots of support with my painting enthusiasm, and look forward to having an art display before long.
God Bless
