10 On The 10th: April 2022

I have to be honest here -- I was feeling fairly down this past April 10th. Dave was recuperating from a fairly bad cold (he tested negative four times for Covid), it was cooooolllllddddd (which has defined our spring thus far), and I was just feeling a little blue. So I decided to take ten pictures of (mostly bright and colourful) things which made me happy.

Sam and I split a mango and I ate it out of a brightly coloured bowl. Dave and Rachel don't like mangoes which makes me sad for them, and extra happy for Sam and I because we get to eat more!!! 

I walked Sam to a friend's house and then I came home and took these pictures of spring flowers in our back yard. The daffodils were about to pop and the crocuses were blooming nicely.

Then I took some pictures of flowers inside our house! These tulips were still looking quite nice.

It was a cold enough day that I wanted some tea to drink while I folded laundry, so I picked a bright, spring looking mug to drink from.

This is a boring picture but Dave and Rachel handwashed all of Rachel's dance costumes. I hate handwashing so I was really happy to not have to do this task.

I was happier about the Blue Jays ball game before the opposing team scored a bunch of runs. Oh well -- baseball is definitely full of ups and downs but it still, usually, makes me happy :)

A cold day calls for warm soup and this soup is one of my favourites.

I was so happy to get the April calendar done. It took me awhile but it's better than March where I never actually finished our calendar. My goal for May is to get the calendar done before the first week is over :)

So that was my chilly, "where are you spring?", 10 on the 10th. It was a good day of getting things done around the house and looking for bright moments.
