Gotta SPRING In My Step And Spring In My Sights


Hi you all! HOPPY SPRING to everypuggy. I am especially happy today because the clouds are dispersing and there is a sweet smell of flowers in the air. It is still cool, but the day has SO MUCH PROMISE!

Just yesterday there were rain clouds in the sky and rain puddles on the ground. It was so gloomy. I spent a lot of the day just doing THIS



It was just the RIGHT thing to do for such a gloomy day. But it was fine - it was Sunday and the whole family was home including MOMMY #1 from college! She is on SPRING BREAK which is perfect since MOTHER NATURE is BREAKING in SPRING, so to SPEAK.

Around here there are clear markers that winter has bid farewell and SPRING is taking over. The temperatures are warming up and Mommy #2 says her BONES are not so cold now. The flowers Aunt T planted are all starting to bloom and when you walk into the backyard your NOSE is greeted by their sweet perfume. I sometimes ask to go outside JUST to SIT in the sun and take deep breaths.

The hills around us are a lovely PANOPLY of greens with SPLASHES of yellows. The yellow is from our native grass - the mustard plant (Sahara mustard (Brassica tournefortii). Oh how I love to see and smell this harbinger of warmer days.



It makes me want to whip out my dancing shoes and GO FOR IT!

HOPPY SPRING!
