Now that the weather is warming up and plants starting to come up, I’m torn on where to spend my time. I have inside projects I’d like to tackle, but love being outside and am anxious to get started out there.

I need to go to basement and move some things around in the laundry so hubby can take a look at the washer. Its starting to act up. Then will head outside this afternoon to do some clean up from winter.

I haven’t canned anything for a couple of years. I did check out the canning section the other day at the farm store and sure enough, as reported, they were out of lids except for a couple of boxes of the tattler ones. They had a sign posted that due to demand there were limits of 2 on sanitizing wipes, 2 kinds of ammo, and canning lids. LOL It tells you what’s important to people right now.

I’d work on the outside if it was me. You have a small window to do things there, such as weeding, planting, etc. Once you miss that window, you have wait for fall or next year.

Save the inside stuff for when it’s raining. It’ll always be there! And maybe break it down into chunks. Like, you might want to clean out that closet but feel you have to do it at once. Instead, just drag a box out of the closet and do it one night while watching tv. Before you know it, you’ll have it done but didn’t spend all afternoon at it.

Ammo, canning lids, and wipes. The ammo and lids go together, but the wipes are definitely a new thing.

People are pouring into Tennessee, buying up properties. I imagine that’s related to the ammo and the canning lids. So I’m hoping it’s like minded people that are coming in.
