what are you doing this weekend?

So far this week has been filled with more crazy weather. Yesterday was dense fog all day long, it was like living in a video game. The high was around 50 so all that snow we got is mostly gone. Today the fog isn’t as bad, and the temps are lower and dropping. It’s supposed to rain, sleet, and then snow some more this week. And then by the weekend get warm again. Right now the prediction is sun on Saturday which after a week like this will put anyone in the mood for spring! And where there is spring there are flowers, and if you go to the Bead Parlor this Saturday the 9th I’ll be teaching a class on how to make these sunny, cheery, bright flowers that will bring spring back in any room. haha, some sales pitch huh!

Really though I will be at the Bead Parlor in Bloomington this weekend teaching this class. Call this week and sign up! Also good to know, Shelley is having a major bead sale, so all the more reason to stop in.

Spring is definitely starting to creep it’s way into my thoughts. I’ve been staying very busy and really haven’t noticed the winter blues, but knowing IL weather in Feb, we could still have a lot more winter to go. That doesn’t stop big plans for yard work from creeping in. I enjoy gardening and working in the yard almost as much as beading flowers. We have some pretty big landscaping plans we’ve been talking about all winter. And after my trip home this weekend I’ve been really thinking about the veggie garden. Last year wasn’t very successful, but I really wasn’t as into it as I should have been. This year I’m working on a plan. I’m thinking lots of different veggies…but keeping the tomatoes, peppers, possibly onions/garlic, near the house. And putting the squashes out in back in the real garden. They need lots of room anyway. These plans along with the house plans that are starting to creep in, plus all my bead goals this year…I’m bordering on overloaded. BUT thats ok right now. I know something will probably fall thru the cracks, but I’m going to try the balancing act and see how long I can keep it all going.
