spring is here again

dusk, and i can hear conversation on the street and birds in the trees, wind through leaves and blossoms, and cars going by.

earlier, i dug around in the dirt and caring for flowers in the front patch of ground outside the house. this afternoon was a take-care-of-the-house kind of afternoon, for us and our housemates.

got some reading done, for a class i'm taking and also some completely unrelated fiction, both reminding me that there is so much to read up on that i can hardly stand it.

i took a nap, i wrote to some friends, i enjoyed the breezes coming in the open windows. this past week it felt like spring arrived and plans on hanging around a little while. welcome, i say.
