Wishful Thinking

Did you know there are 15 days 'til spring?

I did.

In fact, I'm counting down each one of them.

Winter is a nice season; it is just that most of the nice things about it are already over. So on to spring! And just to assure myself that spring is actually coming I have made a list of the signs of spring.

• magnolia tree has blossoms!
• Brian is getting the anhydrous wagon ready
• talk about getting out the planter is more common
• chives are sprouting in the flowerbed behind my house
• swimwear is appearing in clothing stores
• cats are slimming down
• people don't think I'm nuts when I talk about Easter
• daylight savings is this weekend

So there you have it. Spring is coming!
