Happy Thursday Everyone! the sun is finally shining
I woke up this morning to the sound of lawn mowers going past my bedroom window. A sure sign that spring is here. The temperatures might not be springlike but the calendar says spring so it's time for the lawn crew to start the season. The poor guys are all bundled up so it must be cold riding on those mowers.
Nothing exciting planned for today. Just the humdrum boring stuff to do around the house. Now that my back is 99% better I have to catch up on all the stuff that didn't get done.
I have some big chicken breasts that I'm going to cut up and put in the crockpot with some Sweet Baby Rays barbecue sauce. We'll have that tonight with rice.
My daughter is off from work tomorrow so I don't know what we'll be doing.
It's still up in the air what we're doing for Easter Sunday. No big family get together but we might have dinner with my oldest daughter, son in law and granddaughter. My grandson isn't coming home from college for the weekend. My daughter isn't sure if they are going out to the college to see him since he isn't coming home.
I'm pretty happy with just staying home and relaxing. Mother's Day is right around the corner and my grandsons wedding plus all the May birthdays. Plenty of family get togethers coming up.
Hope everyone is enjoying their day and have something to smile about

We haven't mowed yet this year. It's been wet. The temperature is decent here today

We've had a lot of rain too but guess it's dry enough for mowing

@Marilynda1225 Not in a hurry as it leaves the dandelions for the bees too

I'm glad your back is better. I have something planned just about every day over the next week and a half. All kinds of contractors coming for estimates, DISH is coming to recalibrate my dish, Terminix is coming to block up the mice entry points, etc.

@Marilynda1225 So far so good. I even sold the '94 Toyota. They hauled it away. Now they can put the new gravel down in the drive.

I usually only hear lawn mowers here if the windows are open, or if I happen to be outside
