Springtime


We are very happy the snow is gone but we also find the rubbish once covered by the snow.
Last week I spent two hours raking and picking up garbage and this morning I cleaned some more. I was outside for an other three hours raking and cleaning the flower beds. Finally after six bags  filled to the top I was done. I already saw some tulips trying to find their way through the soil.

Yes I am early with the spring cleaning that is because this Thursday I have a cataract removed from my right eye and then I won't be able to do that type of work for a while. The other eye will be done not too much later, I expect three to four weeks.
I am also not allowed to use eye makeup for about six weeks  after each operation.

For the rest I have not much to tell. I am a bit sad because our company left. So the best thing to do is keep busy. That is exactly what I have been doing. I can't believe though that I worked for three hours this morning. Mind you, days beforehand I do prepare my body for the raking. Except for being tired and stiff tomorrow I have no muscle  or back pain. With other words, you might say, I am in great shape!
