Day 2195 Signs of Spring
It may still be cold outside, but inside, spring is already in bloom. My outdoor plants have not only survived the winter indoors, they’re thriving and even beginning to blossom. They won’t be able to go back outside for a few more months, but I appreciate these reminders of warm weather right here in my living room. It’s tough when the large outdoor plantings all need a place to spend the winter. They’re really too big for my house, but I make room for them anyway. Tim has asked if we could just let at least one of them die, but he doesn’t push it when I insist on keeping them. For everyone with forsythia in your yard, this is your reminder: go out, trim a few branches, place them in a vase, and watch them bloom. Sometimes we need to nudge spring along a little. Let’s face it, those bright yellow blossoms are cheerful reminders that warmer days are coming. More cat news, she’s now sleeping on the couch… yay! She’s also spending time in the main living areas and no longer runs to hid...
