As it turns out ...

I do have a few things to tell you this morning! ;)
Mainly a few housekeeping notes. For instance, I have added some new things to my blog, and I wanted to mention them.
In My Notebook (see righthand sidebar). Some of you already have this feature on your blogs, or have seen it elsewhere, but just in case you are not familiar with it ... it is basically a way for me to highlight blog posts I am going back to read again. Sort of like a clippings file. Google Reader is like Bloglines - it lets me keep track of the blogs I read, and lets me know when something new has been posted. If a post is particularly interesting to me, I can just "share" it and it shows up in my little clip box over there. Neat!
Early Spring Nature Study (also at the right). New photo album! And this time, unlike my Winter Nature Study album, there is more than just ONE picture, lol! I aim to keep up with our nature albums better, especially since there is so much happening at this time of year. I've even added notes!
The Nature Corner Widget (lefthand sidebar) or is it a Blidget? I forget. Whatever it's called, it's a neat way to show recent posts in another blog (most likely one of your own). It updates as soon as you publish a new post. So far The Nature Corner has been mostly just a place to deposit outdated nature notes, but as the new spring season opens, I hope to do more with it - make it a true virtual nature journal! Just now I posted a picture of this morning's crescent moon.
Spring fever has really set in, (and not just because the Sox beat the Yanks the other night!) ... I am really itching to change my blog topper. Nothing too radically different, maybe just a different floral. I'm a bit tired of the pink and blue, I'd like something more in soft green and yellow, or maybe peach ... just thinking out loud!
(Speaking of the Red Sox, have you seen (or heard about) this?)
OH! And this just in ... Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End opens May 25th. (Sorry I can't find a link that looks reputable.) As you can see, this news went right in my journal -->!
Mark your calendars, me hearties, and have a great day!
