Winter Days

I'm beginning to get cabin fever, and as the sun shone ever so slighty today, I decided to spend time cleaning the potting shed.


Putting things back in their place.

Wiping away winter dust.

Hanging dried roses from shelves.

Think Spring!

I like winter when it's crisp and even. But there's permanent mizzle here in the Enchanted Village. I hate January!

I agree with Sandra (above). What a gentle, cozy place to putter in on a winter day.

Yes I need to spend some time in my shed. It has to be rearrange and things put back into their places. I may have to through a few things away also. It is a nice, safe haven to go when you can't really be outside. I will run a cord for an electric heater to keep it a little warmer

I only wish it were just dust that needed clearing away in my potting shed, but some of my chickens had taken up residence and I don't need to tell you the mess they left me. Oh well, it makes good fertilizer!
