Spring?

When I got up this morning and looked out my window I almost believe that SPRING may actually be on the way. I saw several patched of grass, brown of course but grass just the same, in the back yard and MUD in the front. The sun is shining enough that I had to pull the blind at work so that I could see my computer...YIPPEE! I thrive on SUNSHINE, love it, always have. I'm not exactly a sun worshiper, I don't lay in the sun for hours on end but I do love to see that bright ball of joy in the sky, it nourishes me, revitalizes me, gives me energy, and believe me after the winter we've had I need all the energy that I can get. The smell in the air makes me believe that summer isn't far away. We all leave for St. Kitts for a week on May 1st so I'll be able to get an early taste of summer, hopefully by the time we get back the ice will be out, or at least almost out, of the lake. I can't wait to kayak again and to start walking. I love to walk but I'm a wuss, so I wait for the weather to improve. I have started working out 3 morning a week though and am enjoying it, I can't put my arms up over my head without being in pain.....but it's the good kind of pain. Another sign that summer is coming is that my son will be home from college the first soon, I'm anxious to have him home but I'm sure that there will be an adjustment period for us all. Since I pay the mortgage he'd better do the adjusting LOL.
