Spring has Sprung
Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4/
Spring has sprung as they say and sights and sounds of winter have given way to those of springtime. With each season even the feel of the sun and wind changes and people may also have a change of attitude or a change of heart.
1/ Many of my neighbors have chickens. Have you ever raised them for fresh eggs or is the grocer your go to for them? Also.. would the sound of a neighbor having them bother you? I grew up on a farm, we raised chickens *for eggs and meat* cows *for milk and beef* sheep etc. no having chickens wouldn't bother me ...I Still live in the country
2. How does the change in seasons effect you personally? Are you happier in some seasons , do allergies get to you, do you perk up or down due to weather? A) the season change sometimes effects my arthritis. B) I love the spring and fall allergies are really bad in the spring with all the new grass growth, trees budding I love the warm sunshine I do suffer from low vitamin D in the winter time. When it is dreary gloomy cold I do have that tendency to get down.
3. This week our youngest family member is in France. She will see Paris, Provence, the Riviera, all very exciting for a young teen. Most of us don't ever do anything that big.. .but even the smallest things can have a big effect on us. What experience do you think stands out most for you in your memory? Going to TX to visit my family, then when I moved to TX was lucky enough in 2003 to get to go to Mexico it was very cool and way different. My big thing as a teen was going to church camp 200 miles from home
4. What do you look forward to in each of the year's seasons? Spring time I love all the new beginnings, Easter is big thing to look forward to summertime so that I can go trodding thru the natural spring fed creeks, fall I love when we get rain at the right time so that the trees turn colors, Thanksgiving I love wintertime if we get snow I love the cleansing that it gives, Christmas

Wonderful answers. Growing up on a farm is a great way to grow up. I was born on a farm, but we left when I was almost 6, so I really didn't get to experience much of it, except for a bad rooster coming after me, so I don't much like being around chickens and roosters! LOL. I hope you have a beautiful rest of your springtime, with no major storms! We need rain really badly here right now. But it will come in the summertime, usually. It all works out.
ReplyDeleteI thank my parents for teaching me values of working I had a mean rooster attack me one morning it was awful. We have gotten record breaking rain fall in OK in April since 1895 * before statehood* and more coming this next week while the ground is still saturated.
DeleteMost of the year I take supplements because we don't get enough sunshine here, and when my vitamin D is low, my hair isn't great – not to mention my bones.
ReplyDeleteOH, Believe me I truly understand that. I hope you are doing well my friend
DeleteThat is nice that you go to go away to church camp. I do have fond memories of going to family church camp. I have always been a city girl with a country heart. You are blessed to have experienced a farm life and fresh eggs!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wouldn't change the farm life for nothing it taught me a lot of values, and helped mold me into who I still am today. Thanks for stopping by
DeleteI enjoyed your answers. My oldest daughter moved to Tx in 2020 but they came back after 6 months..mostly because their job offer didn't pan out. She liked it there.
ReplyDeleteAwww I am sorry that it didn't work out. My dream is to be back down on the gulf coast living again someday. thanks for stopping by
