Agro had his expensive eye surgery and has been healing well. He is no longer wearing a cone on his head (which was hilarious and pathetic at the same time). Here's a picture of him sticking his tongue out at me :P Then we had a little St. Pat's celebration at our house with friends. Agro was stilling wearing the cone at the time, and the vet office had fastened it to his collar with pretty green ribbon, so he was ready for the party.
I went to my first Pampered Chef party and had a great time. That night, Johann, our neighbors Liz & Paul, and I all went to see Cirque de Soleil's lastest installment- Alegria. It was wonderful! I love date nights, even double date nights. That was the beginning to my spring break, too. A great way to kick it off. Poor Johann spent it going to the office and meetings.
The next weekend, Johann helped me trade in my rusting Schwinn cruiser for a lovely vintage Raleigh Phillips from the UK. It's a smaller frame and fits me great! I've taken it out a couple of times with Johann; rides with him are fun.
The weather has become amazingly beautiful recently and we have been spending our weekends outdoors. Easter was also nice, and we held our annual potluck. We watched the movie "where the wild things are" and even went outside for a while. Some of the guys took turns trying out Johann's recumbent bike (a.k.a. the frankenbike).
My daffodils bloomed in time for Easter and then promptly got eaten by animals, and now my tulips are up to replace them. We've been doing a lot of yardwork this weekend- a lot or raking, sweeping, mowing, and bee-killing! I planted my new tomato plant in the topsy-turvy planter. I can't wait to start building up the herb and flower beds next :)
Well, that's all for now. Hope everyone had a great Passover & Easter holiday. Take care and enjoy Spring!
