\"Easter<\/a>Happy Easter! 2017 is just hopping along. Looking out my window I can see our Redbud tree beginning to bloom. My neighbor has a beautiful\u00a0 cherry tree and the lettuce is beginning to come up in the garden. It\u2019s a wonderful time of hope and renewal!<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the tree in the middle of the yard that was struck by lightning a few years ago.\u00a0 It managed to survive, but after a big chunk fell out of it, the shape was never quite right. It was also killing much of the grass in our backyard so\u2026 a couple of weeks ago we took it down. It was so sad to see it fall. I\u2019ll miss the beautiful yellow leaves this fall – although not raking them!<\/p>\n

This past week the stump grinder came and left us a big pile of wood chips. It needs a little cleanup now and some ruts will need to be filled. The grass that did exist is now starting to green and we\u2019re looking forward to the dirt patches filling in with soft green grass.<\/p>\n

Do you find yourself in a similar place whether in work or in your personal life – there’s been a tilling, some changes and now there\u2019s some rough patches in view?\u00a0 Maybe things have been slow or difficult and you\u2019re waiting for the grass to green and fill in the icky spots. Thank goodness for spring and the hope it brings!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a boost of energy, let me put a few \u201ceggs\u201d in your basket\u00a0 that might be of interest to you. Some of these are answers to our most common FAQ\u2019s. Some are tools you might find useful:<\/p>\n
