Spring is busting out all over. Have you noticed the green returning to plants and trees that had faded over the winter months? How about flowers poking through the ground looking for the sunshine of spring?

Well, the effects of nature inspired me to look around my yard. What I noticed was the furniture in the atrium was looking pretty tired, faded and well-used. Definitely time to spruce it up a bit so out comes the metal brush to remove the old paint and grime, cheesecloth to wipe off any residue and now for the fun! A fresh coat of paint.

Did you know you have to show your ID to purchase spray paint? I’m a 60-year old woman who was asked for her ID – I love it!! That was good for a laugh all the way home.

What needs some attention in your life? What can you spruce up that will put a smile on your face?
