This may be “April Fools,” month but there’s no trickery in the details of the important areas to focus on this month.
April is a great month to:
– find deals on socks, hosiery, women’s shoes, and garden tools.
– snag clearances on dresses, suits, office furniture, and of course, after-Easter candy and goodies.
– prepare for unexpected frosts by having a plan in place, such as a stack of containers on hand to quickly cover fragile spring plants.
– till, weed, and plant as your region allows.
– clean debris from grass and rake away from trees, house, and fence line.
– let some fresh air in and spring clean!
– take inventory of your summer needs. Is it time for a new bathing suit? Are you low on sunscreen, bug repellent, beach towels, or first aid items? Stock up now to take advantage of coupons and sales.
– plan any needed home improvements. Does the barn need painting? Do the decks need scrubbing? Gather up supplies and set a date to begin each project.
– arrange travel for summer vacation, summer camps, or expected road trips. Get the jump on deals and availability of select locations before the rush.
