My Pinterest is fixed /pics of Spring

I sent  messages to 'help' at Pinterest with a screenshot of what was happening and when I checked after getting home from work last night it was working!!!!! Wish I could talk to a person but sign of the times I guess. I really miss and love looking at all the pictures and neat ideas.
~~~~~~~

One of the fun thing for me about Spring is all my perennials popping out and digging them up to give to my friends and watching them grow and blossem through the season. Every year  more and more show up and do very well. This year I will have more time to work at it and we had great news that next week the temps will be starting to warm up. That means melting snow!!!! Of course the ground is hard as a rock but that's okay, lots of other chores to do. 

Pansies should be showing up soon at Lowes and I will get some as soon as I see any.


Our covered porch



Columbines grow quickly and the first to flower in my garden.

Green grass...I am ready
 I planted some new things a good friend gave me this Fall so really anxious to see them this year. Hope they grow especially a Hops vine I planted near my garden shed.
I split and moved some plants in the Fall so hope they do well.  I divided these lilies you see to the left which are a beautiful red and really can't wait to see these!
Ahh can't wait
I think I will make a trip to Lowes today to start stocking up on my mulch bark. Helps when I get a few bags at a time.

Almost here!!!!!


This will be next weekend !!!!
So yes Spring is coming finally.

Happy Hump Day

 Does this make you feel warm and cozy?


Can't wait for it to get warmer so I can sit in my backyard at night and enjoy this. Even at 30 degrees I would be out there but that might be awhile!
Not complaining, just getting cabin fever bad!!!!!

Also wondering is anyone having problems with Pinterest? I am and I did report it so will see what happens. 

Happy Monday

BRRrrr!

  What a weather day yesterday!! It didn't stop me from going out and antiquing with my friend Nancy. It was freezing cold and windy.
I did wake up with a sore throat this morning but feel better now.
The sun is shining bright  but still very cold !!!!
I took some updated pics with the sun shing brightly on everything....my favorite time of day.






Found this primitive egg carrier yesterday made of tin .











How was your Valentines day?

Hugs

Where did the week go?

Only 4 more weeks to go and we turn the clocks forward 1 hour!!!
More daylight into the evening is fine with me.

Yesterday we had 40 degree weather which melted a lot of snow. I shoveled quite a bit and broke up ice that was mushy enough to lift and get it off the sidewalk. I noticed the tree buds are starting to plump out a little more and getting some color on the bark.
Tonight we have freezing rain, oh well, Spring will soon be here.
Planning on spending many hours gardening in my yard this year.




Picture below is my spring porch.

All the other pictures from Pinterest.
I am so hooked on Pinterest right now.
It's like looking at pictures in a magazine with zero advertisements.
Do you all like Pinterest as much as I do?  

~ Have a wonderful week~
