Ahhh spring is in the air.
Just kidding, it has been raining here just about every day for what seems like a month! I am so jealous of the people that already have their gardens planted, and are enjoy evening outside with a glass of wine.
Meanwhile, I am over here in jeans, and a hoodie, drinking coffee and freezing my rear off!
HURRY UP SPRING!!
My patience is wearing thin.
