Spring officially arrived today and it couldn't possibly be more welcome! Winter seemed like it lasted for three years. We made it into the 60's. It's a veritable heat wave! Now that's my kind of weather, not too hot and not too cold. I wore my ski jacket on my walk to the store today. Never take a chance that the weather could turn in a heartbeat at this time of year I always say. I ended up getting too warm on the walk back. But who cares? It's Spring! I didn't mind a bit because the sun was shinning all day and the birds where singing. I almost danced home. I didn't dance though, because they were too many people out enjoying the weather. I didn't want anyone to think I was a bit touched. Only you know that's true!
I am giddy because of the nice weather. We've had more gloomy days in the past month than I'd care to remember. I think there were 4 or 5 days the sun stayed out for more than half the day. One day the sun came out for about 2 minutes and I rushed outside to take a walk. As soon as I got outside it was gone. After I got home it came out again for maybe an hour. That's a given. It's like Murphy's Law; as soon as I went in, the sun came out... Well, at least I got outside that day.
We had colder weather later than usual for a long time this year. When the winds kicked up, it would knock the breath out of me. On those days I enjoyed walking with the wind to my back, pushing me along. I certainly did get a good work out walking into the wind. I kept my inhaler with me just in case. My lungs got a great workout and they have to be stronger after this month's wind walking. What a great name; hello I'm "Walks with the Wind". I know, don't go there; that can be taken many ways... I'm also happy to report I've had no symptoms of asthma in so long, I can't remember the last time I did have them.
I even washed the kitchen and bathroom floors this afternoon, with a smile on my face and a song in my heart. I'm not the most domestic person, so for me to be happy washing the floors is proof of how good a mood I'm in! What would I be like living somewhere like Florida or California? Probably pretty annoying in my giddiness huh?
