Spring Green

Spring has arrived in full force. Daffodils are everywhere, forsythias are blooming, and dandelions are appearing. Almost all the flowers I see are white or yellow, but here and there are little bits of pink or purple. The grass is looking very green. Its growing fast. We will soon have to start up the lawn mower. It feels more like April in Texas than New York. I'm almost afraid to believe it will last, but I sure hope it does. I'm more than ready to pack the winter clothes away for a few months.

I had a busy weekend with grocery shopping on Friday evening, a bridal shower Saturday morning, and a farewell party Sunday afternoon. I came home from the bridal shower rather sleepy and have been feeling drowsy ever since. (Rachel, I think those allergies caught up with me.) Even coffee can't keep me awake. This too shall pass. I am taking my antihistamines and hoping my body adjusts quickly. I hate to sleep through such beautiful weather!

  1. I hope you feel better. I can't believe things are growing so fast there. Today is only our second nice day. Things are just starting to turn green.

  3. Sorry you're feeling allergic now. My allergy meds are helping me some, now that I'm allowed to take them again (since I'm done with allergy testing). This weather has been unbelievably beautiful!
