not Sprung yet …
I thought March was supposed to come in like a Lion and out like a Lamb? Last week it snowed for two days and then this morning it slushed …. there is no other way to describe it, except maybe snow Irish style! At least when it slushes, the traffic isn’t as bad as when in snows. My morning drive was only 10 minutes longer than usual.
I think back to last year and well …. okay I didn’t have to deal with snow, but I must say it was much much warmer in Ireland than Calgary is right now, okay just less snow because once you add the dampness to Eire, there is no way it is warmer than anywhere, but maybe Aunt Martha’s crack! And we are no closer to April, so I can’t even use the addage of “April showers bring May flowers!” to keep me going.
Soon though, you really can smell it in the air. Spring will be upon us and a whole new adventure begins. This ‘tween time is a bit boring as it does limit what we can do to keep our selves occupied as the evenings draw longer and the desire to be outside grows within.
