The Melt

Finally some warmer weather and the snow is pretty much gone. I think the ground will thaw in a few days and I can start my spring yard things. I've got several old rose stumps that have to be removed. I've got the new roses already to put into the ground. This year the garden will be simplified with little maintenance. I'll be undergoing some heart surgery mid-summer and will be out of commission for a while.

I've got three roommates now and life is great. We all get along and the place stays tidy. I put out some chocolates for the two women for Valentines and they're pretty much gone ... now I won't be tempted to eat them myself.

I'm planning to make a trip to Edmonton soon ... probably at the end of March beginning of April to help my handicaped brother with his affairs. I do this twice yearly. Perhaps he'll come back with me for a week or so.
