So the weather is to DIE for here. But still chilly when I took louis (mini schnauzer) for a walk it was 31 and I was FREEZING in a hoodie. So it was a quick walk. The sun is out the birdies are chirping. hehe Love it. I decided to do a lil spring cleaning inside so that when it is WARM I can skip the cleaning and be OUTSIDE!!!!!!!! I can't wait. hmmm I smell dirt, see crocuses, and hear birdies. Spring is here even if its not official. How's the spring coming with you all?

I keep thinking Spring is finally here and then we wake up to snow! LOL! We did have a couple warmer days and I spent several hours out trimming perennials, etc. I too am so ready for spring and am enjoying seeing and listening to all the birds. I think, when I go grocery shopping today, I will pick up a bouquet of daffodils, because I want to push spring wherever I can! LOL!
Hugs & blessings,

Hi Sue, You are way ahead of us. Our daffodils are several weeks out still . . . which is why I have to resort to the grocery store! LOL! Can't wait for the real thing. I have daffodils, tulips and glads. Can't wait!!

My crocus are blooming in the bed I shoveled the snow off of. Counts as spring to me (even if I did cheat a little)! I spotted the first robin last Thursday. Snowing off an on since last Friday. But it's only snowing an inch or two and then the sun comes out, repeat.

Oh I can't wait for spring to really truly get here! I too am working on getting the house ship-shape so that when it is beautiful out, Nora and I can go on walks to the park and have fun outside. I know Sky loves days when we get out and about. And I sure would like it if my jeans fit a little looser! LOL

The warmest day that we have had this whole year was 50 degrees and that was once. Right now it stays around 35-40 degrees during the day so while we still have loads of snow on the ground it is slowly melting. I saw my first robin last week but we still have ugly brown grass and no flowers even trying to emerge so it looks like spring isn't in a hurry to get here. -Elizabeth |
