a lot, a lot has been going on in connecticut. i absolutely love the springtime, so i have spent a lot of time outside [both for work and at our house]. let's start with our house, and more about work later...
we have been working hard to make the yard beautiful this year. we added a few gardens, got a bunch of flowers [for free - yay!], and are still trying to clean up from last fall's crazy snow storm.
on top of all of that, one of our roommates is moving out. we all have grown apart from him, so this is definitely best for our house. however, we are upset that he decided to give away what became, in his constant absence, our house pet. grizzly adams, the bearded dragon, was roxy's best friend, and she definitely misses him! once our roommate is out, i'm excited because i have a new room to paint. mike wants to paint it a neutral color before the next roommate so he won't have to quickly paint it when he decides to sell. any suggestions?
so... crazy springtime.
