Day 80

Even though it feels like summer, today at 1:14am spring officially arrived and I for one couldn't be happier, I know it can still snow, after all I once had a flight to Florida delayed by a snow storm...in April, and once in high school played a softball game while it was snowing...in May. I don't think that will happen this year, it's been such a mild winter that it can't snow now, can it? 

Spring is when you feel like starting fresh, spring cleaning, fixing up the outside of the house, getting the garden ready, all kinds of fun outdoorsy stuff. Fresh air, sunshine, warmer days, sleeping with the window open, wearing shorts, trees and flowers blooming, allergies, it's the best time. When it doesn't take you 15 minutes to get dressed to go outside it makes everything more tolerable, I like being able to just walk out the front door with the dogs, they like it too, they're small dogs and they don't like the snow on their undercarriages, if you know what i mean. So from the bottom of my dogs, well, bottoms, happy spring!
