The day has been gray sprinkled with a few bursts of sun. Amazingly even the ice on the sheltered portion of the patio has given it up for the season. As a spring gift to self I have redecorated my living room. Martha Stewart: eat your heart out. No visit to Pier One Import or Walmart — just using what has been around for a bit in a unique way. Prep for Easter is under control and I am looking forward to enjoying a relaxing visit from family and grand pups. It’s time to take a bit of time outside as Easter Sunday and Monday are promised to be in the 30s for temps. Dang. Hurry up and wait.
