Happy March

This is a celebratory blog post: The wicked witch of the west is dead. Elvis has left the building. February is over once again.

This year I emerged relatively unscathed. The month of doom went fast, there were no break downs, no fantasies of moving to the Caribbean, and no horrible, no good, very bad days. But it is still nice that it is over.

It is March! This means:

-"Ducklings and lambs are born on a sunny spring morning" according to Chloe, a student from Scotland who made the calendar I have on my desk.

-I have planted seedlings indoors in preparation for gardens this spring: tomato, eggplant, peppers, sweet and mammoth basil, spearmint, cilantro, cosmos, and other flowers.

-The snow is melting off our deck no matter what the temperature, because the sun has heating power.

-Husband and I have started running outside again. LLC and I have plans to.

-Day light savings times is next week. Yippee!

-I have seen shorts and short sleeve shirts out in stores.

-Husband and I are taking our annual spring trip. We leave tomorrow for the West Coast- Washington and Oregon.

-Frisbee play-offs are the next two weeks. There have been emails about summer league.

-I register for my last class of my master's program soon.

-Husband and I are preparing for our Denmark stay/jaunt around Europe. Only two months away!

-Leo is omni-present when he hears the front hall closet opening, keys jingling, or jackets being put on.

-Babies are being born left and right.

-Blankets are being taken off our bed.


Let's hear it for the beginning of spring, officially March 20th!!!
