Beautiful First Day Of Spring!

Today's weather was fantastic! It hit the 70's on this first day of spring. I rode down the shore this morning and had my car windows opened. When I returned home I opened up both doors and was in the mood to start spring cleaning. I washes 3 floors and my master bath. I also took the winter pictures down off the walls in the living room and replaced them with 2 more colorful impressionistic pictures. One is a Degas and the other is a Renoir. I also hung 2 Victorian Era pictures. One of the pictures is of a concert where people are even sitting on the stairs to listen to the music being played. The other is a picture of a dance where the ladies are wearing gowns and the gents are wearing tails. It looks like the dance is taking place in a large ballroom. I changed the pictures in the dining room/library also. I rehung the equestrian pictures and may rehang the riding hats and the crops
Tomorrow I am a Lector at mass in the morning. I'm hoping to go for a walk after church. I will open both doors again when I return from my walk, and vacuum and dust the living room/dining room area. On Monday I'll do the kitchen floor and thoroughly clean the kitchen. That's the plan. I hope I can get those things done. In the evening I'll knit on my pink prayer shawl.
The beautiful weather was so inspiring!!! I was a bit sleepy before I started to clean because my cat annoyed me all night long trying to get me out of bed. I very reluctantly started sweeping and I got hooked on the prospect of what things would look like when I got done cleaning. The beautiful weather was a motivating factor for me.
