I definitely must be losing my mind. I keep forgetting what day it is now too! I'm not sure what's making me feel all over the place! I'm also not sure what happened to the day either. I don't feel as though I got anything done. I don't think it's helping that I haven't made lists the last couple of days, so I have written myself one for tomorrow and one for Thursday. Hopefully that helps!
I'm feeling a little hemmed in by stuff again. I've got boxes sitting to go to donation, stuff I need to get listed somewhere for sale and other stuff I need to look through. Aarrrggghh! Hopefully the list will help me work through this and get things back to where I want them, or at least well on the way!
I did go for a quick walk today. It was super icy at Asylum Lake. The temperature dropped today and everything that had started to melt yesterday froze again today. It wasn't fun so I decided not to walk far. I did see a beaver pop up in a small open space of water AND (drum roll please) I heard my first Red-winged Blackbird - a spring bird - of the season! Does that mean winter is coming to an end?
What's the first sign of Spring you look for or listen for?
A painted stone on my walk :)
I like that painted stone! You sound a little bit overwhelmed, but, having a list will help to keep you focused. Break the bigger tasks down to smaller, more manageable bits and you'll soon find yourself making a lot of progress. At least, that's what I tell myself! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I saw one on a walk, but they always make me smile!
DeleteThe lists really help. I feel as though I've been quite productive these last couple of days.
First sign of spring? A waft of scent from a pink flowering shrub (I keep forgetting its name) which suddenly perfumes the air in late winter. Then tête-à-tête daffodils in the garden.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely image!
DeleteWe have cold coming after the warmth, so I fear ice will be treacherous for walks.
ReplyDeleteIt's very icy where I walk. It's not been fun at all. I'm trying to be really careful not falling over even with my Yaktrax on! Hopefully soon the ice will clear
DeleteIt's got to be daffodils for me. As soon as they start popping up I know warmer weather is just around the corner.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely!
DeleteA jolly, colourful painted stone makes such a difference to a walk.
ReplyDeleteThey are really lovely to see. I haven't seen one for a while, so this really made me smile.
DeleteThat stone is really cheerful. I think for me, the first sign of spring is when you see crocus coming through.
ReplyDeleteI hear you with the lists - I MUST get back to mine.

I can't wait for Spring. I've been doing quite well with the lists. They really do seem to help!
