1. I have some very good friends. I have had a bit of a difficult week at work but the positive side effect is that I know (not really news but it is nice to affirm these things) that I have very good, kind, lovely, beautiful friends. Three of them read this blog.
2. It feels like spring is here. Since I have tempted fate by removing my snow tires and we are bound to get one more snow, I'm trying not to get too excited by the weather this week just yet.
3. I'm looking forward to a huge jam making summer. I was a bit lazy last summer and the end result is that I'm almost out of home made jam. A definite crisis in my world.
4. We had a huge white pine cut down the other day. It was, according to the tree people, 100% dead. I got 2 answers on what killed it. The estimator said it was some sort of bug. The leader of the cutting process said it was likely a fungus. Either way, it's sad to see such a large tree go. Again, on the positive side, it was partially shading my veggie patch. Two expected outcomes - my veggie patch can now be larger and plants that are supposed to have full sun will now have full sun. My garden did very well in partial sun before so I'm hoping that this will make it do even better.
