Spring is Coming!

This post is dedicated to Spring!  I know that Friday will mark the "beginning" of Spring, but I wanted to celebrate today.

Here is NY, it is a wonderful 55 degrees and it seems fabulous to be out without a jacket! It has been sunny here all day and sun in NY is always a cause for celebration!

Here are a couple of snapshots of the flower beds in front of our house.

Above, there are at least seven "bulbs" that are popping up!  

These are daffodials and tulips, I can't wait for them to bloom!  

I am so happy to live where we can see the four seasons change!

Laundry Room

Recently I posted on FB about being excited my laundry room was done.  I thought I would share some of the pictures with you.  This first picture is taken from the door where the new addition meets the house. Don't mind the saw-horses on the patio!

This next one is taken at the end of my folding counter.

These last two are the view from the patio doors.  You can see the door where the first picture was taken from.

I am so thankful the laundry room is done.  It has only been two and a half years in the making.  But, I guess that is what happens with free labor!

Munificent...

is the new word of the week.

I have to say a great BIG thank you to momma for her shout out of my blog.  It was rather exciting to check out her blog and have it link to mine.  I know, I know,  one should not be so easily amused!

Anyway....

I know I have been neglectful of my blog lately.  We have been busy, busy, busy.  Plus, this is the 9th week of our Third Quarter, and it is Exam time.  Yikes!  Where did the time go?

Everybody ready?  I guess you could say you were all on the right path, you just took the wrong turn.  Here is the answer:

mu⋅nif⋅i⋅cent:  adj - myoo-nif-uh-suhnt

1.	extremely liberal in giving; very generous.

2.	characterized by great generosity: a munificent bequest.

New Word

Today's word is brought you in part by, Papa! We were at their house for a visit, and I told him about our word of the week. He suggested the following word:

BLOVIATE

I hope you can figure this one out. I had not idea! But then, I ususally do not know the answer.

See you soon!

Answer:

blo⋅vi⋅ate

  [bloh-vee-eyt]: to speak pompously

Good job, momma!  You knew where the word came from!  Thanks, Papa for helping me this week!
