I am hoping that this will be the picture everywhere soon. At the moment it is still very cold and grey here although the daffodil bulbs are growing so hopefully they will look like this soon. March 1st is the start of the Spring months but March and April here in the UK can be hard weather wise, with March’s high winds and April’s showers it doesn’t really settle down until May.
Normally March is when I begin to think about beginning the Spring Cleaning which I do over the next three months but this year It may take the rest of the year!!! I have done one cupboard in the kitchen already so that has been ticked off the list, just now need to do the rest, although I am also adding my decluttering of our home in with this. So decluttering first and then cleaning! Youngest’s room is now completely empty so that will be cleaned and then painted before we put any furniture back into the room. I may also use the room, whilst it is empty, to put the boxes in that need decluttering and then they can be put where they will be stored until needed.
The garden is looking a bit sorry for itself at the moment and needs a good tidying but there are signs of things getting better with the bulbs starting to appear, the snow drops are coming up and the lemon primulas are starting to flower too. Can’t wait till they are all in flower. This was taken last year when the den was still up, as it has been too cold and raining today to take a new picture!
In the next few months we have quite a few things coming up including Easter! DH and I will be painting Youngest’s room over the long weekend, which is four days! It will need two coats of paint as it has not been done for a while but I am sure it will look great when it is done. I thought I would include some Spring flowers to cheer everyone up. Love the colours of the primulas above and the flowers from our Business dinner three years ago, below.
Wednesday today, middle of the week yeah, almost the weekend. Hope you are having a great week.
The spring blooms are so pretty and I think your garden looks great with your beautiful green lawn!
