Signs of spring I have noticed lately:
– tons of mud in the yard
– patches of green scattered throughout the mud in the yard
– three dogs with a total of twleve muddy paws that need wiping
– buds on the trees
– lots of sneezing and watery eyes from the buds on the trees
– crocuses, irises and tulips pushing their green leaves up through the mulch
– the willow branches are turning green, soon to bud
– lots more golfers on the golf course
– lots and lots more golf balls in the yard
– the sun somehow feels warmer
– it’s lighter out later
– I have spring fever – I can’t wait to get out and walk all over the world and explore new trails
– the next-door neighbors are back from Florida
– lots of litter lining the creek beds
– the goldfinches are starting to brighten and turn gold again
– the squirrels are crazy active lately
– baseball spring training
– I open the car windows a lot more now
– I leave the heat turned off more often
– I can open the windows more, too
– the windows need a serious cleaning
– the yard needs to be raked and cleaned up.
What signs of spring are you seeing?
BASEBALL!
BASEBALL!!! CUBBIES!!! Oh, please stock up on Claritin because Kansas allergies make me want to claw my eyeballs out. Then I won’t be able to enjoy watching BASEBALL!!
Hoping all those next door neighbors soon go home from Florida… the traffic down here is INSANE!
