Quote of the Day: Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush. – Doug Larson (I got this one from my friend Deb at Dream. Embrace. Believe.) Deb, Joy’s voice student, who arrived with a wave and a greeting from me to “pull up closer to the garage. The driveway is a disaster. And, please come in through the garage so you don’t fall!” Gosh, what a sloppy mess, and it makes me so happy!!! I got Spring Fever so bad this weekend that I did some deep cleaning, including sorting through my underwear drawer and purging the uglies! Oh, ya. Look out, Sock Drawer, you’re next!
I’m having daydreams about warm, sunny days, and flashing back to our winter getaway in sunny Cabo. I spent some time yesterday writing about it on my travel blog, Ride off the Page. Click over there to see how Mr. Happy spent his vacation in Mexico!
It looks like good melting weather this week. The Biker Chef is setting taps on the Maple trees. The boys are talking about riding their bikes to school (that might be further off than they think, considering the snow and ice), but you never know. We could have a good melt over the weekend. Of course, that means flood season is coming! Also, the April Blogging from A to Z Challenge starts next Monday. You’ll see posts here, and at other participating blogs, every day in April, excluding Sundays (unless they’re behind in posting or in another time zone), and if we’re lucky, a bonus post or two at Ride off the Page. Hey, Chef, when you bustin’ out the Harley?
So, how are you doing with the Spring Fever? Or, is it always lovely where you live? Or, maybe you’re in a different hemisphere from me. In that case, enjoy!
Go. Create. Inspire!
Journaling Prompt: What are some signs of spring where you live?
Still really cold here. I think spring was delayed a month or two. Not complaining – by mid-July, it will be hot and humid and I’ll long for the cold chill.
Mary, I always know from the kids. Yesterday afternoon they were outside romping around in the snow. Yes, there’s snow but there’s sun and they were having a blast out there. They have Spring Fever BAD. And I have to admit, I’m feeling it too. We’ve had a lot of sunny days lately and that feels great! Love you in that cute hat, by the way. Glad you gave it a double shot at the limelight. It deserved it!
The spring bulbs peeked from under the late snow.
A few warm days here and there with the songs of birds echoing through out the valley.
Still cold up here..you are more south than me. The sunshine helped today..but we have feet of snow to melt:)
Oh yes, I remember spring… vaguely. It’s out there in a spectral way. Hints of tulips and warming sunshine – but as yet,nothing but dripping gutters and the soggy feet you mention…. the sooner the better, I say.
Brr! I’m so ready for warmer weather! Summer would be wonderful. I vote we skip Spring entirely in favor of summer!
So glad to see you’re in the A-Z! I look forward to reading your posts!
Cheers,
Jen
and it’s good to be back! I’ve missed your always upbeat posts!
Hi, I’m stopping by to introduce myself and wish you luck with the A-Z Blog Challenge. I’ll mostly be exploring CHANGE and SENSORY AWARENESS and how to implement these concepts in storytelling. Hope to see you around -Belinda.
We are in full spring mode here! Blooms everywhere and it hit 70 today!!
Cut grass is my cue when spring has sprung…
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
