You might think you are ready
for it, but it often creeps up on you without you realizing it. I am talking
about Spring! February is the time when the colleges start their spring break
season and the groundhog lets us know if winter will truly end or if there will
be six more weeks of punishment. But oh February, use this month to begin your
preparations for spring. Here are several things you can do this month.

- De-muck your yard. Your yard is
frozen but with warming temperatures it soon won’t be. Take the time now
to plan to fill in those bare muddy spots with sod or seed, plants or
paving materials. Check out what available ground cover would be for your
area. Maybe add some gravel, decorative gardens and rocks, a new fish pond
anything that might keep those recurring mud holes away. - Spring cleaning
motivation. Take time to clean up and organize your laundry room and
storage shelves. It might even motivate you to set a plan for spring
cleaning. As a kid, I always remember my mom announcing in February that
it was spring cleaning time. - Pay close attention
to entrances and exits. What better place to start your clean up than to plan one for
your foyer and other door areas in your home. These places often take the
worst of what we bring into the house and don’t often get good treatment
for it. Use February to clean up the winter gunk. - Handy man or woman? Many handiwork
companies often get an onslaught of new work in the spring. Beat the rush
by making your plans and booking in February. There are all types of
indoor fixes that can be done and a lot of exterior ones also. Maybe you
really need a landscaping professional, go ahead and get on their calendar
now. Bids don’t usually cost much if anything and the contractors will be
excited about the planned work.
Hope these
tips inspired you to set your planning in motion. Spring is a renewal of
spirit, love (Valentine’s Day) and cleanliness. Set February as your new spring
cleaning planning month.
