Spring!

It's March 20th. The First Day of Spring. My Nephew Donnie's Birthday. The sun is just starting to peek out from the gray clouds. Sort of teasing us, saying "Now you see me, now you don't!" Why is the beginning of Spring in March when it's still so unpredictable? My cynical, winter weary self says it's so we don't go ahead with our dreadful cabin fever induced plans we have been formulating if "they" leave their shoes in the hallway one more time.....
Run for your lives!!!!!

Ahhh. Spring. The crocus's have bloomed, the bird's are busy, busy, busy, the bud's are forming on the cherry willow and all is becoming right with the world. You can almost taste the sunshine, feel it's warmth on your face as it melts away all the hostility created by that wicked winter ice all over your car that you have to scrap with your fingers cramped into claws while you are hurrying to get on the dirty slush covered roads where people drive too fast for the conditions and refuse to clear their cars completely so the snow flies off and......

Oooops. Spring......such a beautiful time! Hope is in the air and all shall be well!

Happy Birthday Donnie!
