After a long, cold winter and a bit of a rocky start to spring, for that matter, I am beginning to see signs of fresh, green life returning to my corner of the world.

Oh my gosh, y'all. I hope everyone is hanging in there. I started out on this making and designing adventure back in February. That seems like a lifetime ago.
