...sort of.
It's not really the end of the week-end, and not really a wrap up, but I needed title.
The tulips are a bouquet I bought for our Valentine's dinner at home. Help me enjoy them!
I spent a good part of yesterday morning looking for something. I thought I knew where to look for it. There were 2 items to be found, actually, and I found the first easily enough. Feeling successful, I went to where I thought the second item would be, but alas. I looked elsewhere, high and low, then went back, and looked in the same places again. I still haven't located said item. I can almost see it where I think it was the last place I lived. Seems to me it should be in the same box, as it is one of those items saved for posterity. I must have sorted through the box some time or another, and thought of a better, more likely place for the item's storage. Yes, that worked well, didn't it? I suppose it will turn up...eventually, and if not, it is not like it is going to have to be replaced, or there will be penalties or such like.
But. It. Drives. Me. Nuts! that I cannot locate this item.
On the upside, while searching, I did find some other photos of interest to Dearest Sister and myself. We had been talking about some missing photos, and I found one of those we were looking for. It appears there were two occasions for these photos, which I didn't remember. I had lumped the two together in my mind. But there were definitely an earlier and a later setting. Funny how we remember things, or don't, as the case may be. Usually, between Dearest Sister and myself, we count a complete memory of our childhood between us.
It snowed here on Friday, then the sun came out, and Wonderful Guy and I walked Best Dog Ever in sweatshirts yesterday. After that, I walked around the yard checking on the status of things. Some iris that were replanted last year are looking good with new shoots. Very encouraging. I was excited to see that, and thought I might have some early perennials pushing up in a particular bed in the back. WRONG! Silly woman. That, of course, is on the north side of the house, and there is still snow back there in many places. Oh, yes....February! And to prove that point, we had snow this morning. All gone now, with sunny skies, but windy and chilly. Very typical of the approaching spring season for Colorado. I work hard at not getting too anxious. It can be torture waiting to starting digging in the dirt.
We visited Grandbebe Girl and Grandbebe's Daddy for a bit, too, so I got some hugging time in there. She also showed off her new skilz! Grandbebe Girl scoots herself across the floor. We have mobilization! ('Life will prove to be even more interesting for Youngest Daughter and Bebe's Daddy', Grandmama chuckled quietly to herself.) Grandbebe Girl found it amusing to feed Grandmama part of her cracker. How could I refuse!
One more thing. I found a spinning wheel on Craigslist today. I am checking into it. Wonder where that will go?
Later!

Love the tulips! We're a good two months yet from tulips here. I'm pleased to help you enjoy yours.
As for moving things and then forgetting, I do that all the time, and it drives me wacko. I'm beginning to learn to put things where I'll expect to find them later, but apparently it's a very slow process. On the upside, I found some cashmere-blend roving the other day that I had entirely forgotten about.
