You ladies helping me navigate the unsettled feelings I was left with after that nasty gum episode. You are the best friends ever.

Sleeping on freshly washed sheets. Sometimes I consider washing my sheets every day. So far, common sense has won.

We have had spring since February, except for one brief freeze. It has been so nice to do things outside. So far it hasn't come with severe weather for us. It is a totally rare spring for this area. We usually go from wet and cold, to wet to stormy heat waves, to arid and fiercely hot with only a few rare days of comfortable temperatures. I have been soaking it up and enjoying it.
