Spring?!

I can't believe it, but it looks like Spring actually might come this year after all!! Today the temp is suppose to be 57! I don't know if it's even gotten to 40 let this year! The breeze is still quite chilly, but the snow is melting! I think almost all our grass is showing! But there's still lots and lots left to melt yet. I think the snow pile in Winnipeg just might be there all year long. Unless we get the really hot summer that the weather folks have been talking about!

So as far as the projects go... I think they are all finally done, except for the wall bed. The bed is actually done just need to finish the book shelf that goes with it! And then get that room cleaned up for once! And now with Spring hopefully here, I need to wash all our winter stuff and get that put away so that it's not all laying around. And my other project that I've been working on as most of you will know or have imagined is sewing!! Isn't it kind of ridiculous that you have to sew a whole new wardrobe when you're pregnant?! So far I have 3 dresses done and my friend Greta is working on one for me. I plan on getting a couple more cut out today....

Kelly said I could quit working at K-Tec if I promised to have a company over one night a week and did something for someone else once a week, so.... I've gotten the company one done, at least there was someone here for a meal 3 days in a row last week! Not so sure about the helping someone else out though. Hopefully I'll get there once I get this sewing out of the way. 2 weekends ago, our little black nephew, Ben, was over for the night. I told Kelly before we went to bed Friday night, 'You know there won't be any sleeping in tomorrow.' And I don't think he really believed me! But this is what happened:

Ben comes walking to our room before 7 to inform us it's almost 7 and the sun is up! Kelly looks at the time and said, 'Yes, and we are going to sleep for a long time yet!' Ben says, ok, and promptly piles into bed with us! And decides that he will share my pillow. So we all laid there for a while with Ben tossing and turning.... So finally I told Ben I'd make him a bed on the floor by the fireplace heater and he could look at books. Well it was a great idea, but I guess he'd never heard of turning pages quietly! Finally Kelly decided this was enough. So he downloaded a bunch of games on his phone and gave it to Ben. And then there was peace all the way till 9:30! So at least we got a little more sleep! But then it was time for breakfast and Ben had brought along some sardines so he had them for breakfast! I walked up the stairs and that's all I could smell!! So told Kelly he better take that trash out right away cause that smell wasn't sitting the best with me! So ya.... All in all it was a great time! :)

Wishing you all a great day... till next time!
