Sorry, not really. Covid-19 has been awful.
The only good thing about it has been the chance for us to be at our Connecticut home instead of us in Florida at this time of year,
Our yard is overflowing with daffodils. Unfortunately, some are not where they were planted originally, thanks to the squirrels.
However, I have so many that I wasn’t aware of for years, that I took the opportunity to cut some for the house. Yep! Over and over again.
Happy not to be in Florida at this time of year for a change!

Spring is a beautiful time of year, after being buried in cold white stuff! Your daffodils are lovely:)

@DianneN Our squirrels take corn from our neighbors yard and bury it in our yard. Then, the turkeys pass through twice a day and eat it!

I can't blame you, but then the winter was non-existance and spring is fairly comfy. Thought it'd be far worse, turns out.... not really.

There will always be bad and good things that happened during this COVID-19 pandemic. Some bad, some good nevertheless, there is always a lesson or two.

Those daffodils must be lovely, The warm and sunny weather has returned to Florida and I finally took a longer walk, My friend's son came with me because I had not gone out for so long I wanted some company for the first time out, I was rather shocked and made him laugh when I pointed out things and could say I remember the first time I saw that it was two years ago lol what this pandemic has done now I will make sure I get out on my own at least twice a weekl.

I'm glad you're enjoying CT. We have a lot of daffodils too. I hope you will be able to go to FL this winter.

@LindaOHio So true. We decided to fly home more often. We have a bazillion air miles accumulated.

@DianneN Yeah, that's one thing about spending your winters there. You don't get to see your family as much.

Daffodil bulbs are supposed to be poisonous, yet many of my daffodil bulbs have been eaten by some creatures somehow. I planted lots, but so far, saw only a few last year. (The first year was good, the second year was OK, the 3rd year: non existent...)

my squirrel army at work! Do you know how long it took me to train my replanting squirrels?

@DianneN first I had to train them how to use the shovels. (Nearly 2 months) then i had to teach them to be Connecticut squirrels (that took 3 months)

I can say covid has come with opportunities and some drawbacks too. We have experienced both the negatives and positives alike.

Nice daffodils. I have a tulip that has opened up by the mailbox.
