I hope you are enjoying spring. I had to laugh at your comment on Tina's blog post, saying you were enjoying seeing spring come to the northern states. I am enjoying seeing it come to the southern states, and finding its way to my Nebraska garden.

It's a farm expense so tax deductible but like Dave used to say, "You still have to pay for it." -grin-<br />I'm tired; we had a couple of days of warmish weather so I've been working outside. Today is cold, won't get out of the 20's and I've spent all morning outside. The cold wears me out, makes me exhausted and there's little to nothing left of me once I get inside. <br />Yes, actually, I prefer warm, melty brie with my whine -grin-.<br />Take care of you; and praise God those folks are going to paint your house...PRAISE GOD!

I remember after I got married, one of my friends from school headed a group of high school kids that spent their Saturdays in the summer working on the homes of the elderly doing this same kind of maintenance. <br /><br />I'm so glad you are having this group to help you.
