Last week spring came overnight here; it was freezing – 5C the day before, and the next day the temperature raised to + 20C.
In the night, there was a loud thunderstorm, very unusual at this time of the year.
Not only the weather warmed up overnight, but my 200 strawberry plants and the raspberries also arrived, and the man who is painting the rooms of our house showed up.
My whole house will be painted inside all the rooms and bathrooms.
Good, the weather is warm, and I could bring all my houseplants into the garden.
I am very happy about it, but it is a lot of work as well.
Now I have a major spring cleaning. Renovation is going on, and I have to put Raspberry and Strawberry plants in the garden.
Partly I could plant and clean windows and rooms until now but will need another week to get it all done.
Sometimes all is coming together, and sometimes all we want is to come at once.
Now we are waiting for nature to let things grow.
What about you?
Did you experience times like this?
Erika, How did mange to think about about the strawberry’s when you had a young painter in your house ? ๐

Hi William ,
very easy ,this young painter is my nearest neighbour and is always around. The strawberries need to be planted,
they will pay for the painting ,the KLT factor for my products is already established ,even without video ,thought
the taste. ๐
Now you know it ๐
Thanks for the comment ,William

Things do tend to happen suddenly, Erika, and when they do, we’ve just got to roll with it.
As nice as the Spring is, I always appreciate a long cold winter like we’re just coming out of. With no distractions and springtime chores to deal with, it gives me a few months of just purely focusing on my internet business.
I do it gladly, knowing full well that when springtime arrives, my attention will be diverted.

Hi David ,
yes this time it was over night.
I am happy the winter is over. You like the winter to not get distracted ,I can understand this ๐
I like when the weather is warmer ,because my husband is going to be busy and not complaining all the time,
that I only sit in front of the laptop . Dealing with the strawberries is more pleasant . ๐
Thank you for your comment ๐

-5C to +20C means almost 25-degree celsius goes up over a single night.. OMG how your manage that?
This is not unusual here ,Thyrone Charles
we had 2 days ago snow again. People in big cities may not feel it as much as we here in the nature .
Hi Erika, as for Spring, there is nothing like Fresh Paint to bring light to the world. It really does lift you up and when you’re
that area of light, it seems to continuously flows into everything else. Come paint at my house?

Hi Erika,
As Spring rolls in, I have the urge to plant my garden, be outside, and of course do that “spring cleaning” in my house. But I’m always torn between doing these things and keeping my business running. I’ve done some Spring Cleaning with my business also.
I’m sure glad that Springtime where I live is coming in slowly instead of all at once. I can do a little here and there and eventually get all things done in it’s own time.

Hi Donna,
good for you if you can do both , here it is too big ,
may go to change things for the future ๐
It is too much to do here for two people
especially if 10 rooms get painted and the planting is to do as well.
But after I may be able to enjoy spring and do
the other things waiting for me .
I too will get things done in its own time ๐
Thank you Donna
