Below is a short list of positive things that happened this week:
1) The temps FINALLY went up. Two days ago it was about 70F/20C. Yay!
2) We are getting lots of rain, which on one hand sucks but on the other, is very needed. Decided to use it and took out my lemon tree, so it would get washed thoroughly from all tiny spider-mites. I know that spider-mites are probably in some way useful in nature, and God's creatures BUT they do drive me NUTS!!!!!!!!!! My poor lemon tree suffers each year- I guess they just survive on dust particles and there is no permanent way of getting rid of them... So the story repeats itself each spring: the moment it gets a little warmer and it starts raining, I take the lemon tree out for several days and nights to be showered and cleaned. We'll see for how long it helps this time!
Rain, rain, rain...
3) I managed to do my stretches every evening. It is kind of funny because once I get my yoga mat out, Hana comes and does some stretching too!
4) I cooked some yummy stuff. Among other things, it was a veggie/tomato soup with a sea vegetable- Wakame.
... and a veggie salad with walnuts and feta cheese.
5) Finally, I got to meet with friends. It was fun, so I feel like I charged my social batteries and can survive next week!
