February is the border between winter and spring. — Terri Guillemets

And that border became very visible in my backyard over the weekend! Why you ask? Well, those daffodil bulbs I planted 2 years ago… colossally huge daffs… are poking leaves through the dirt and well-decayed mulch! Likewise, the allium’s that the rabbits love have also poked some green shoots up… only to be nibbled by said rabbits. Sigh.

Yes, Welcome February!!

However, my much wiser and less eager snowdrops have yet to poke their wee little leaves through the myrtle that holds them safe.

I have a short-ish list this month… apt for a short-ish month (that I am hoping does not feel as long as January felt!!)

  1. Clean out the refrigerator… sigh.
  2. I will cross off “Visit my doctor” today! However, I think this appointment will trigger a couple of additional appointments. Sigh. But, ignoring problems does not make them go away… so yes, I am putting my “big girl panties on” this morning and doing a bit of adulting.
  3. And, if things one and two were not enough… I would like to get our taxes done this month. (perhaps while there is still a somewhat functional IRS)

I figure that with this line up I won’t have much spare time to stress over what chaos the Orange Ogre unleashes this month…. and perhaps that is a good thing.

I sincerely hope that your February does not include any problematic things… and it is a month of sunshine, roses, and chocolates for you all!

Happy Monday, see you all back here on Wednesday!!
