I'm dreaming of Spring......

.............and I'm trying not to. I love the change of seasons but I seem to always be "waiting" for the next one. I'm really trying to enjoy "today" instead of "waiting" my life away. Winter hasn't gotten to me yet but I find myself thinking more about Spring and Summer and have to push the thought away and instead think of...........how wonderful saunas feel this time of year....how cozy it is to be in a warm house looking out at the snow with a fresh cup of coffee.........how enjoyable the comfort foods of stews, soups and hot meals are..........how nice it feels to curl up with a good book and blanket........how enjoyable it is to work on sewing or knitting projects.......Okay........I'm better........Spring can wait (and I'm sure it will!)

Looking at those pictures makes me wish spring were here too! I was thinking the same thing, this morning, as I looked outside. There are buds on our Maple trees already!! Mark said that happened last year too, but we weren't living here, so I don't remember noticing it. Apparently, they start budding really early!

I'm looking forward to spring, but not so much the mud that will come with it, because we don't have any sort of lawn yet.

spring is starting to sound nice about now... I haven't minded this winter though so long as it's not so cold!
