things we have to do in spring
change tyres to summer ones
have the car checked and washed
sort out some clothes, some to give away
in “Kleiderspende” or send via “Balikbayan Box”
put winter coats and boots away
have winter coats dry cleaned and hanged
buy new seeds and plants
Him Indoors works in the garden
put three tortoises out in the garden
give them dandelions from the fields
take lots of photos of buds and flowers
cycle to beer gardens and parks
hurray for spring!!!

This is what our garden looks like…for Spring!
*three things that make me smile: an exercise in gratitude – feel free to steal this idea with wild abandon and fill your blog with the happy*
Things have changed these days
Previously naked branches
Are dotted with buds
The snow has melted
Crocuses and snowdrops
Tortoises are out
Petals with silky hearts
Flutter down as gentle rain
Blossoms are here
Lazy wind pushes
Soft green grass, blue sky, white clouds
Blackbirds sing above
Spring is here
Let’s welcome with open arms
Days are longer

They have been hibernating since December and now, we woke them up for Spring. Welcome back, our tortoises!

A creative miscellany of mythic fantasies
Hoping to make the world more beautiful
get outdoors; find inspiration; discover yourself
"I saw the Angel in the marble, And I carved till I set him free." Every story has an impact, each tale matters
"Thoughts and matters"
It's a writers world, a world that seeks to explore and entertain
Let the light in!

Photography.... that one moment in time...
A look at life, achieving good physical and mental health and happiness
