With fingers crossed we can kiss winter good bye. Statistics may
allow for frost till Memorial Day, but as the temps hit eighty degrees, you
just can’t wonder and worry about it. Last week we declared that spring had
arrived. Today as the mercury rises, we feel like summer is here and overlapping
with spring.
This weather makes you roll up your pants, don the flip-flops and
sing a happy tune. Winter was kind to us this year but we want to look forward
now. Off to the garden center we go, buy the seed packets, get our hands dirty
and drag out the garden hose. Everyone taking a walk is delightfully surprised
at this glorious weather while slightly holding their breath…please let this
weather stay around…and no more frost! Even the dogs have a lilt in their steps
as they pass by. It’s almost too good to be true.
It’s nice to be outside and listen to the cars go by with windows
rolled down and with the music blastin’. I had a flashback of getting my driver’s
license (a couple of years ago! Yeah, right!) and doing the same…but to a different tune. Technically
speaking it was a different song, but was it really a different tune? It’s
springtime and life holds promise. This is the stuff that daydreams are made
of. A glance up will catch you a glimpse of a lazy cloud floating by. A glance
down will let you see a dandelion as a flower and not a weed. Flowers are
scarce but the bees are buzzin’ and so are we on a day such as this!
Let the daydreamin’ begin!
