Christina, Autmn and I are trying to get a time and day for the Crocus tea. Hoping for next weekend. The girls are spending tonight and tomorrow together at Lori’a so they can work out details around games and rides and puppies and we’ll go from there! Autmn sent me a picture of her with Shawn and Rosy.

Kathy (aka Aunt Cordelia) and I took a trip out to Lapp’s Family Market to get block chocolate for my pretzels. They only carry the block chocolate at Christmas, so I got the wafers. Hopefully it will work ok. I’ll try it tonight or tomorrow. We left Lapp’s and went to 2 different Dollar Trees, and I sort of found what I needed but it wasn’t exactly what I wanted. It will do. I did get the cinnamon rolls iced (yellow and green) so that is finished.

After lunch I decided to mow the grass – first cutting of the season. The mower started right up and the lawn looks wonderful. I even weed-whacked and only went through one battery! I did, however, realize that it’s time to start the spring projects, and I need to get my annual hyacinth to enjoy and then plant. I need to get Round-up for the stones between the fences on the hill. I need to get the lawn fertilizer now that I have my spreader. And I need a bag or two of top soil to fill in a few places where the winter washed away the grass. Tis the season!

After the yard work I washed the car. First time for that with this car. It was so totally dirty! I know it doesn’t appear to be too bad but it was horrid. Now it’s clean and shiny and happy in the garage!

April 2 – Tell about a practical joke or prank someone played on you. “Uncle Edd had a wooden snake. He would hide it where he knew I would see it & think it was a real snake. I would always yell & sometimes throw the snake as far as I could when I knew it wasn’t a real snake.”
