Electricity... you can't live without it or with it much of the time. I've got some of my own electrical woes.

What a strange life St Paddy had! I never knew this; thanks for the history lesson. And for the AccuRadio link. Mabel and I shall celebrate our shared ancestry from far northern isles across the seas by wearing green, and in my case the drinking of the beer later today.

Indeed Spring has sprung! The glacier covering my back yard is now nearly all melted, I've been able to walk my stir-crazy dog around the pasture and to the mailbox, and daffodils and daylilies are staring to poke their heads out of the ground.

I saw it from my bedroom window. This was also the "worm moon" so named because this is the time of year when earthworms emerge from the ground, attracting flocks of robins. (One news person once remarked,"They could have named it the robin moon, but no, they settled on worm moon!")

If they like it, why not leave it?

Don't feel too bad; mine were all eaten by voles. (My daffodils fare better because apparently they are not so tasty.)

What a beautiful sight!

Sewing is one of those near and dear to my heart activities that I never seem to have time to work on. You should see the gigantic collection of sewing projects piled up on sofas and tables all over my house! Few things are as relaxing and satisfying to me as sewing and reading, yet somehow...
