I'm always happy when the bitterly cold temperatures of winter are over, but I do love the colours of the rural scenery at this time of year. Taken yesterday afternoon when I went for just a short drive south west of the city, hoping to see Mountain Bluebirds. So, does this look like spring to you, ha?

Received an e-mail from one of my friends in England letting me know that 12 large boxes of belongings were collected from my brother's house today, ready to be shipped to Calgary. Not sure, but I think each box is about the size of a large fridge/freezer (30 cu ft)?! Can you believe that my friends have packed everything themselves? It never went through my mind that they would do this. I had just assumed that a packing company would be brought in and would see to everything. One of my friends was with a packing/shipping company for 30+ years, so I was thinking that he would know exactly who to bring in. This means only one thing - I HAVE to get a move on and start sorting and clearing my basement. I have room for maybe one box at the moment, lol! Doing this sort of thing causes great pain in my body, so I know I can only do a certain amount at a time. Wish I could just keep at it until it's finished, but I have to spread it out. Also, very soon now, my brother's house will be up for sale, so I will have to deal with that, as well as all the arrangements and forms to be filled out in connection with Customs and the Bank. Soon, very soon, my amazing friends will be able to get back to their own lives - knowing that they have all done an unbelievably great job the last three and a half months. Their shiny halos will be dazzling!

18 cu/ft fridge with top freezer, full size stove with vent hood, double sink with spray faucet.
