It’s been a particularly dark and rainy winter this year, so it’s been great seeing the sun this weekend. Combined with near 60-degree temps yesterday, it was my idea of what February should be like. I was able to get out in the yard and do some work in preparation for spring. My daffodils have already popped out of the ground, though they’ve not bloomed. To soak up even more sunshine, I sat on the front porch and read chapters for my critique group meeting on Tuesday. I also started doing some spring cleaning even though we’re still more than a month away from spring.
I also learned how to sell stuff on eBay yesterday and put up our first auction. This serves the dual purpose of making a little money and getting “stuff” out of our house. It’s funny how much “stuff” you accumulate when you buy a house. It’s like your brain says, “We must fill up all available space.”
It’s another beautiful day, so I think I’ll trim some of the bushes in the yard, do some more cleaning, finish up the reading for critique group and then get started working on my women’s fiction book again. I hope to be halfway through the first draft by the end of the month.
