Signs of Spring
Spring is coming! It’s coming!
I have no idea what was discovered on Groundhogs Day this year, but here are some signs that spring is on its way:
- I sat on the front step and enjoyed the sun. The sun! And didn’t wear any mitts.
- I got to wear a vest the other day.
- I had my bike out.
- I am panicking that ski season is almost over. I’ve hardly been out!
- There is sunshine.
- We changed our clocks an hour ahead.
- I’m booking and planning our annual spring trip to Victoria. That means flowers and green grass!
- While sitting on the front step enjoying the sun, I saw an ant! a moth! a fly! and a beetle! Plus a disgusting amount of mushy dog poop from inconsiderate dog walkers all over the front yard where the snow used to be.
- Easter Creme Eggs.
- Suddenly there is wonderful fruit and vegetables in the grocery store at decent prices–meaning that somewhere in the world it is late summer.
- Muddle puddles.
- My husband shaved off his goatee.
- The cars always need washing.
- And sun.
