My Sally ~ A Bird & A Squirrel

It is a beautiful day in the Northwest (finally) although this morning was 33, it's warmed up into the high 50's today. I was standing at my kitchen window and this is what I saw... My sweet Sally (the Chow Chow) overseeing the morning bird feeding.

The first picture is of a regular visitor around bird feeding time, a juvinelle squirrel... I guess they don't mind sharing the seed? He's always poking around. It's so fun to watch. I had to take the pictures through the window though (thank goodness I cleaned them last weekend) so it is a little "noisy". Still thought you'd enjoy it though. It is REALLY Spring??

I've listed some things to Etsy ... Finally

Go to Etsy to see what I have listed in my shop!!

Happy Spring ? ? ?

Although it doesn't feel like Spring in the Northwest (as in many other areas of the country) It's always nice to dream and imagine the "day" it really breaks. You know that day... the day it really warms up and you "ust know" it's here -to stay. Or so I pray.

In the meantime, while we wait for "that day" and my daffodils & Hyacinths bloom away without the for-get-me-nots that usually bloom with them but can't because it has been so chilly here (they said about 12 degrees cooler than normal and March was colder than February)

Despite it all, I hope you are designing and decorating with Spring in mind because it WILL happen, and when it does, Be ready!

Here's a Very Sweet Poem I found! And fit perfectly with the NW "Spring"
