Absolutely Gorgeous Monday

What a beautiful way to start this Monday...with blue skies and plenty of sunshine. When I took the dogs out this morning it was so nice we sat outside for awhile and then I came in, got my second cup of coffee and went back outside. I've been waiting to have my coffee outside for ages and today it finally happened. What a glorious way to start the day.
Of course I had to come inside and get the day started with the usual household chores. But, the windows are open and the birds are singing. Will I jinx it if I said spring has finally arrived?
I sold something on Ebay (not anything significant) so my daughter took it to the post office along with some things she needed to mail. Our little dog Mush loves the car so she went for the ride. Gizmo isn't fond of the car so he's here keeping me company.
When my daughter gets back we'll have lunch and then I have a few more things I want to list on Ebay. I try to keep it simple so that I'm not mailing out huge boxes but I do have a shirt and some books that I'm looking to sell.
All in all that sums up my Monday so far.
What's new in your neck of the woods?

We're supposed to get rain on Wednesday but I can see the grass is turning green already. Pretty soon May will be here in all it's glory

@Marilynda1225 Today was the first day I noticed that a lot of our brown grass is getting green.

It is a beautiful Monday - but in our area it's starting to get "hot" . . . but for right now it's feeling quite perfect before noon. I just got some errands done . . . now I'm myLotting a bit . . . and then I'm off to do more errands before I pick the kids up from school.

It's in the 80s now, but supposed it gets a tad cooler in days ahead. But who knows - it's been a weird toss up of weather the past few months! Hope you're having a good Tuesday!!

Ebay is hit or miss most times. This time it was a hit

I think you can say Spring has arrived. I'm glad you could sit outside. Not here yet. Still too much snow, though it's melting fast. Getting up to 60 today, my guess though it will go higher than that. I'm glad you could enjoy coffee outside.

@Marilynda1225 We're getting to those days. We're in the 50's and 60's this week, and starting next week we're hitting the mid 70's.

May not want to say that so fast. It may just disappear for a bit again, lol.
Glad you could finally sit outside with your coffee though!

@Marilynda1225 I wish there was some place local that I could take them to like a second hand store, but the only one we have just accepts donations. I would like to see a couple bucks from then instead. So that is why I was thinking ebay, but I have not posted anything there before so I am a bit nervous.

before you list them go into Ebay and see how many are selling. It will give you a guide as to how many and the prices. After that you can determine if it's worth listing

It sounds like you're having a nice day! I enjoyed my walk today and took Doodles out 4 times. He basked in the 80+ temperature while I did some minor yard work and laundry. Now this is Spring! Bright blue sky, daffodils blooming, buds popping open, and warm sunshine!

I'm starting to feel alive too after our long and horrible winter. How's Doodles doing? I know your vet report wasn't good

Honestly I only try to sell things that are small and postage friendly. Shipping can be crazy
