Time to post in the new month!

Probably cups of tea for all (DH and one or two male helpers outside, plus 2 dogs)
Take it easy and find something for supper (hunt in the freezer for chili or perogi)

Can't believe its the first of April already. That means the first quarter of the year is done. Time to think about our New Year's Resolutions and how are we doing now?

Enjoy your much deserved Me Day Dianaro.

I am hoping to have a Me day too.

Happy disorganized day, Bless! We all know we can get back on track later when things work out.

I'm enjoying a heap of cardboard boxes in the corner of the kitchen, especially the two with filled bottles in them, and the filled bottles cluttering up the kitchen island right now.

Bottling and sap collecting crew and dogs have left (dogs stayed outside), so I am going to have a rest now, having loaded the tea cups into the dishwasher.

Bless:
Aren't you feeling well yet? Too much going on? You hae done a tremendous amount of things in the past two months....so take a break, and rest.

Bushlady:
Sounds like a successful gathering of syrup! Do you sell it or what? Do you have to cook it? I have no clue, just have seen the buckets and the spigots for the draining of the sap, but don'tknow what else you do.

Tinytina:
I don't make resolutions, just a plan. Things are going along, but not at the rate I want them to. Hoping to finish up some items I have carried along for years, and toss some that I have changed my mind on.

Ladies, you do realize what day it is, today, don't you? April 1st? Yes? My post this morning was my attempt at an April Fool's Day joke.

No, I won't give up trying to be organize. But, all jokes aside, I do feel like I am back-sliding. I've been bringing work home, every weekend, for the past 3 weekends in a row - doesn't leave much time for me to do my own, personal stuff.
