We went for an impromptu hike. The Boise mud sucked the heel caps off of boots that had survived three spring RenFaire seasons in Texas.
The house is mostly in order, with a few things bought to round out the look. I am actually attempting to decorate this go around. It's definitely neo-Victorian by way of modern cartoons from that end of the forest where there are more ravens than bluebirds. I like ravens. These pint glasses make a lovely addition.
My in-laws came for a visit. We went to Twin Falls. It was cold, windy, and there wasn't much water. The view was still pretty amazing. We've made plans to go back once the weather warms up.
We also went to the Birds of Prey Center, we have plans to go back there as well. Darling Son heckled, gently, a bald eagle to get him to show off his wing span for the surrounding crowd.
Said in-laws made it home safely, to where weird, white, frozen stuff does not fall from the sky.
Husband had shoulder surgery not overly long ago, so I have been being an extra set of hands as needed while he recovers.
My container garden is being steadily, albeit slowly replanted. It only stopped snowing in the last week, putting a damper on spring planting till later than I am used to.
I've spent a goodly amount of time embroidering (mostly seasonal) pieces to put up, padded with a heavy amount of knitting so I have nice things to wear once the warm weather is in full swing, (instead of disintegrating tee shirts).
At some point I will remember to take pictures of the half dozen things I have finished this year so far, as well as the half a handful of plants(not just pots of dirt) and my new (absolutely fantastic) sewing books.
I've still not found a groove out here. I am choosing to blame it on the winter hibernation that happens around here. Hopefully, that changes with the (just) now warmer weather.
