Weather is warming up! It's so beautiful. Grass is coming up, so much so Kenneth mowed yesterday. Trees are still bear but wont be long before they grow their new leaves. The bird are laying!! Yahoo..Im on my last bucket of water glassed preserved eggs! We now have fresh chicken and duck eggs for our family and soon will have enough laying to sale a few. Our geese, Eleanor and her daughter from last hatching are laying eggs as well. I counted over 20 eggs last count! I was hoping they be in their new home before they started laying!
We got the planter boxes moved and I will begin preparing them. They should have already been prepared but things around here have been difficult. Elmer is not doing well. He pretty much stays a sleep most the day. Pain meds have been increased and its a struggle to get him to eat much. It's such a beautiful time of year and I pray he gets to enjoy it. We have a wheel chair ordered and I hope I can encourage him to sit in the warm sun a little each day.
Preparing for spring while caring for a terminally ill spouse is very difficult. Im just trying to hold on, trying to cope, trying not to fall apart. My life long partner is leaving me behind, and that alone is hard to face. My sister came to stay with me a few weeks and Rachelle and family are in Texas. Making the final move here, Praise God! They will stay a week here before settling in their new home down south. Having all my kids fairly close is a blessing. Maureena and family are in the home stretch getting their house out here. Im excited for them to start their homestead life out here. So strange how life goes on when one slowly heads out.
