I'm not laughing.

Hey, okay, I got it already. You can stop now. It isn't funny anymore. Yesterday it was in the 60's , and I actually opened the windows!!! I walked out of the house sans coat! I didn't need to turn on my heated matress cover last night.

So, ha-ha, you got me. April Fool's and all that. Thirty-five degrees. Yeah, some joke. You can warm back up now. Some sunshine would be nice, too.

Bleh.

Could it be...really..Spring?

After being jolted awake from a panicky dream at 5 am, to which I laid in bed and dozed back off while trying to get my bearings (and being thrust right back into said dream) a half-hour later I was rudely prodded back awake by husband o'mine's alarm he forgot to turn off after being called in to work at 2 this morning.

To say it wasn't a good start to the beginning of the week well, it's an understatement.

Sitting in my chair, fumbling with a cup of coffee I can't remember making (have you got it yet I am no morning person?), the sky still hanging on to last night, I realize, gently poking it's way through the silence is...bird song. The first bird song I have heard that has beaten the sunrise since Winter.

I am suddenly less sleepy (let's not go so far as to say I'm awake), and it doesn't have anything to do with coffee. I half-expect to see, when the sun does rise, green grass, daffodils poking their heads from the ground, and little bluebirds flying around a deer's head.

Okay, we'll step back a few paces off that visual. For one, I didn't plant daffodils, and for two, that's a Disney movie. Reality...it's going to be a mud-sodden mess out there. March is definitely going out like a lion today with heavy rains and thunderstorms. Which means it must have came in like a lamb, but I don't recall.

But, hey, I'm not complaining. I think Spring has done sprung here in my neck of the woods. Finally.

Crazy, Housebound weather

Let Me In!!!

This has been one heck of a week for weather. First, it rains on top of already frozen ground, so now there are mini ice-skating rinks in my yard. Then, school is closed today in case the weather predictions are right with the 6-10" dump of the white stuff. It snows, but nowhere near the amount said. It then rained on top of the snow, and I bet school won't be closed tomorrow and I will have to drive in the frozen muck.

Oh, and my puppies are spoiled. They are indoor dogs. They just know the out of doors as one big relief station. Wusses.

I am sooooooooooooo ready for Spring.

And, yes, this post was a lame excuse to show off Blaidd showing off his Corgi pose. "Westminster, here I come!" Well, he can dream, no?
