I am SO ready for spring. We had a pretty good melt going. Then it decided to snow a few inches. It’s melting again, but still…I am ready for warmer weather. I’m planning to try and move the last of my things off the place next week and try to sell the trailer. Then I want to figure out what it will take to move into Vancouver. I’d like to be down there by April, which is not that far off. Mainly, I need a place for the cats. They are inside cats and we haven’t quite figured out a way to move them in. If the boat were ready, I could move there, but we are still working on it. I will find out how things are progressing tonight. I want to finish up some of the loose ends from the old life and get started on the new one.
There are bulbs in bloom in the lowlands. I’ve had roses in the bedroom, but those finally died. So I bought a few bulbs for the room today; a primrose, narcissis, and small iris. I have four cheap rose bushes to plant too. I just have that need to work with growing things for awhile.
Oh, and to show that I’m still a geek, I picked up a Palm Tungsten C last week from Free Geeks. Great price! These have a built in wifi and a larger than normal battery with 64MB of RAM. It’s a screamer. I just couldn’t resist it, although I’d sworn off on geek toys. The only thing it lacks is a camera. I guess if I ever upgrade my cell phone, I’ll just get one that has a decent camera. I might still pick up a Palm Centro for my phone. I still like Palms.
Dogs are doing fine, as are the cats. My goats have been kidding in their new home, out East. I’m adjusting to the loss of that dream. I think the reason that people have problems adjusting to the loss of a spouse is that the old dreams have died but there are no new ones to take their place. I am trying to dream those new dreams now. As I start to see them come to life, I will feel more confident about the future.
