The sun was shining enough today, to make staying indoors seem criminal. It's still chilly, but my backyard is a bit of a microclimate, and I have been staring at the dead everything for too long. I couldn't take it any longer. Brought the chickens over for some company. Their quiet clucking is so cheerful, it makes the time pass quickly. That and watching my yard waste container fill.
I always try to focus on what I can see from my kitchen window, so that I can see the change in the garden, even if I haven't weeded. Just cleaning up makes a difference. And lo! Payback came in the form of a miniature iris, hidden from view until I cleared away the dead stems from it's neighbor. That, too, made it all worthwhile. Spring is just around the corner my friends!
