WINTER BLUES and a light at the end of the tunnel.

Well I know I haven't posted anything in a long time, but I haven't had much to write about lately. The holidays came and went with nothing too awe inspiring to say and winter has just droned on and on and on with lots of cold and tons of snow. Did I mention I HATE winter? If I could I would follow the bears' example and just hibernate it away until spring. At last, the past few days here have warmed up above freezing and the snow has melted a bit and so I am finally seeing a light at the end of the winter tunnel. The stores are starting to put out the spring clothing and the gardening sections are filling up with seeds and soil and all the great stuff that comes with warmer weather. I am an avid gardener and love to get out into the dirt and plant and care for flowers and harbs and veggies and everything green and growing. Spring is my second favorite time of the year, with fall and Halloween being my first ( of course). Although I have to say it is a very close second. There is something amazing to me about being able to go out and dig in the soil and sew some seeds and being able to watch what I planted grow into adulthood and being able to use it to feed my family and friends and myself, or to be able to use what grows to make my yard and patio look wonderful all spring and summer and into fall. So I guess what I am trying to say in my rambling kind of way is that my winter blues are starting to turn green and I am beginning to see that this winter WON'T last forever, even though sometimes it feels that way. So maybe I will be posting more in the near future and you all can come by and visit me once again.  Thanks for stopping by to read my ramblings!
