(our Easter tree is blooming in the small, sunny room where it keeps us company)

Almost two months along from when I thought I would begin redecorating here, I am actually getting around to it…

Looking back, it feels as tho’ I’ve spent most of those weeks curled up on the sofa, trying to get through a long bout with the flu, not “ready” for the Spring tho’ longing for warmth and renewal, resting and waiting to become aware of what my first steps in this new season will be.

It’s why I’ve been so quiet here, as I wait to have something to say. And I’ll probably remain quiet while I work behind the scenes to refresh this space (and continue refreshing myself!). I’d love to begin my tenth year of blogging on April 30th with rooms that feel bright and cosy and restful. That is what Spring Cleaning is looking like in my own home this year…less scrubbing, more paring down and cheering up.

Wishing you well with your own Spring Cleaning, whatever it looks like, and I shall see you again soon when the apple trees are blossoming in our kitchen garden…
