Here we are… Easter Sunday. 🐣🐰
Dinner with my tiny family later today. Perry is smoking a cherry-glazed ham and I have most of the other food items ready for consumption. Here’s hoping you and yours have a wonderful Easter with loved ones too.
Yesterday, I finished my last winter project. Just in the nick of time, I hung curtains in the upstairs bedroom.
I have a few touch-up paint things to do at some point, but nothing big left that I wanted to get done before spring. TADA!
Next up, spring projects.
The things that need done this spring are numerous:
- Brick edging along the sidewalk.
- Rubber mulch to cover about a 25-acre area (at least it SEEMS like 25-acres).
- Decks painted and re-painted.
- Prepare ground for and plant wildflower seeds.
- Landscape that 25-acre area.
- Open pool.
- Drain, clean, and refill the hot tub.
There’s plenty more to do, but you get the idea. And most everything I have to do by myself. My assistants have better things to do.
Seasonal goals are how I get things done.
Do you set seasonal goals — or just do what pops up that needs done? Or maybe you have things you always do — like spring cleaning or yard work — but you don’t necessary consider them goals.
Before I began to set specific seasonal goals, I would flounder around and procrastinate to the point of never making progress. If you find that’s what’s happening in your life, try writing a list of what you’d like to accomplish before summer. And then, start tackling that list a little at a time.
Now you know: Until 2019, male members of the US Marine Corps were not allowed to use umbrellas while in uniform.
