I really am still here!

My spring has been a bit overwhelming. I’ve been getting rid of weeds that over took my flower beds after a summer and fall of neglect due to my illness last year and also tending to cats with medical needs. My energy went in those directions. I am finally catching up and catching my breath. And thankfully my cats are well at the moment too.

I am not as young as I used to be and it’s not easy facing that reality. My cats aren’t either and that’s hard to face too.

Once upon a time crawling around on my hands and knees pulling weeds for hours was easily added into a day of other chores. Now it takes longer and more out of me and I’m less apt to do a bunch of other things on top of doing yard work. I have to pace myself and be realistic with what I can accomplish in a given day.

Wisdom comes with age and so does more sore muscles!

I finally got my hummingbird feeders up last weekend and was delighted when after only a couple hours I noticed that one was visited. These little birds bring me such joy as they buzz around my yard. I am grateful they’ve forgiven me for neglecting them for the last month and have returned to bring me a smile.

I do hope you will also forgive me for letting my blog sit idle for so many weeks. I appreciate your visits to my site and hope you find the resources useful enough to return again and again to see just what else you might find.

What changes are you noticing in your energy as you are getting older?
