May is here!

April has been a really long haul. Mike has been in North Dakota for weeks sorting out things with his mother, who moved into assisted living last month. Can't wait for him to get home.

In the meantime, with all that extra time (!?!?) on my hands, I've been working overtime. The last two weeks have been light, but the next few will be crazy. I also quit smoking 10 days ago - a big plus. Still a struggle, but I believe I can do it. (Chantix helped)

The grass is finally green here, and the flowers are popping along with the leaves. Finally. :)
