Is it spring yet?

Life has been pretty ho-hum. There are things I like about the winter; mostly no hay fever, no mosquitoes, no bees (actually, wasps--honey bees are good so they can pollinate my fruit trees & berries). Despite that, I must admit I'm anxious for spring to come. Our snow is trying so hard to melt totally away. It will be nice to have it gone. We've been fortunate to have temps in the 50s, and rain instead of snow.

Our family is anxiously awaiting Maisey's grooming appointment for next week. She's very shaggy and smelly. We've even had her jump in the shower with Jord to get the stink somewhat sprayed off. I'll definitely post a before and after picture when she gets groomed.

I've got other things I need to get done around here, everything from spring cleaning to painting. And I'm supposed to fit that in with my PSE?! The boys have taken notice that I rarely watch TV anymore. Who needs cable when you've got Photoshop? Yes, I know, I'm addicted. It's better than being addicted to Dr. Phil or American Idol, right?

I have managed to learn how to make my own paper. I'm still in the trial and error phase. I also made a "card" for the Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet. (Mark is the committee chairman.) So here's my latest works of art, so to speak.
