This is such a strange spring. I was so intent on the flowers scratching their way through the dirt and taking a look around that I forgot about the potential of a friggin foot of snow!!!!! My daffodils and crocus's and joquils have light green stalks in the front of the house. Or had anyway. Now they are all covered with snow. It really shouldnt take too long to melt I dont think. The sun at the moment is shining and hopefully simmering away the snow. Hubby went out last night to the friendly sons of Ireland dinner. Just a quickie for those who dont know our last name ends in SKI! Are WE Irish.? hmm... I am my children are. Andy has some but are we officially I dont think so. My girls are Bailey's, yup first hubby was and remains Irish. My heritage is English, welsh and Irish. Jack is a mutt. I am calling him that with a smile on my face and love in my heart though!!! My dear friend Maryellen was 100% Irish. It was a tradition tog o to her house every ST pattie...
