Spring Time

I LOVE SPRING TIME! Nature seems to wake up and I can almost hear it singing! We have a favorite tree in our back yard. I can see it from the kitchen and it makes me sad when it looses all its leaves and I'm always afraid it has died. But as soon as Spring arrives, it comes back to life, with beautiful dark green leaves! We planted roses by the front door, and I think they produce more flower this time of the year. Almost every time a new rose appears, Oscar picks it up and brings it inside to me, always singing me the Spanish song: "Te llegara una rosa cada dia..." I love it! Another thing I enjoy this time of the year is that for some unknown reason I get the cleaning bug. It feels so good to have a very clean house! I have been working on uncluttering our home for a few months now. It's taking a long time, not because it was too bad, but because I don't seem to find the time to do it! But it feels so good to give away or just get rid of "stuff". Little by little I have been getting my new office/work area organized. I am so excited about getting it all finished! One big reason I want to finish it is because I want to start doing more family history, which includes organizing all the pictures, journals and spiritual notes I have been collecting for the last 27 years! I went shopping today and bought a couple of things that make the little room look so much nicer for just a few dollars. My grandma - Abuelita Juanita - went shopping with me. She has so much pain in her knees caused by arthritis but she has always insisted in walking and staying active, bless her heart! I was finally able to convinced her to use a wheelchair when we go out, that is the only way she is not in pain. We had such a good time!
