Sunshine and Flowers

Tired of cold, tired of snow, tired of winter
I've bundled up and walked in the snow 2 sweaters, a jacket, hat, gloves, fleece lined tights under my jeans and warm socks and boots on the warmest day of the week. It was a balmy 25 degrees Fahrenheit. The dog was happy and I tolerated it even enjoyed moments of watching her act silly and taking some photographs. It's pretty outside but I have a longing for warmth and sunshine and to see the world come alive around me with fragrant flowers that open up to the beautiful sunshine. I'm kind of like a broken record. I am tired of the cold and bleakness of winter.
This morning it was 6 below zero. My family in Marquette MI speak of 18 below. It's bad I know but cold is cold. I've gotten into the carbohydrates and then I scold myself all over again. Sigh! I started the year better but February has been like an endless Antarctica
I'm tired of shivering and dressing in layers of clothes. Sometimes I just can't get my happy face on.
Maybe I can take a long nap and dream of flower power! :-)
Sing, sing, sing birds this one wants to fly south!

I know your dog loves the snow though, and I enjoyed seeing your photos. The other day one of my cousins posted on facebook that it was -22ยบ F in Harrison County, Kentucky. I know that my university has been closed all week.
ReplyDeleteI understand!!! Chin up, February is almost over...only 2 more months of winter left...at least where I live! I love the bird video though...beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI understand, Cheryl. I don't ever want to live where it is cold and snowy, ever again! I love Florida so much! Hang in there! Nanook looks happy! Hugs.
