Tuesday

It seems to have magically happened just overnight.  There are tiny new leaves on the trees and willows, the day lilies and rhubarb in the back yard are up, and the lawn is almost green!

 
The stems and leaves on the Jonquils Tracy sent me greened up as soon as I got them out of the box, and they are beginning to bloom.  So pretty!

***********************
My girls and I have been talking, and I think it's time to give up this house and move into the retirement center.  The stairs here are a hassle for me, and I don't need that. Barrie is thinking she would like to move back to Montana, and I think she should.  She really likes it there, and I fell in love with the place too when we took a couple  of road trips up there.
 
Barrie and I have been working on the house getting rid of things more or less all winter, but it is overwhelming to even think about moving.  Why do I have all this stuff?
 
Tracy would like me to consider moving into a retirement facility in Colorado nearer to her.  She sent me information on a couple, but they are so expensive!
 
I just talked to my brother.  He and Alice are doing the same thing, and plan to move into a house in a retirement community in Riverton.  I'm not sure, but I bet they have more "STUFF" than I do.

Holy Cow Balls! I can't believe it and yet I'm not surprised either. I wondered about all those stairs. Don't you wish you could just take your perfect upstairs studio apartment & attach it to a retirement center?
Sounds like you have lots of tough decisions ahead.
