Even though autumn is my favourite season of the year I have
to say that I am filled with joy that spring has finally come to my little
corner of the world. Maybe it’s my age, but winter seems to get longer and
longer each year. It always fills me with joy when my usual spring time visitors
begin to rebuild their home in the corner of the porch roof. It’s not really a joy on the rainy days
(although it gives me an excuse to be lazy), but with the rain, comes the joy
of spring flowers. The spring flowers and the tiny buds on the trees bring a
renewed sense of joy to the upcoming warm sunny days ahead!
I think it’s safe to say we can park the snow blower back in
the shed and leave all but one shovel out. I do live in Canada, so one never
knows if Old Man Winter will try and blow back in for one final jab at us and
cover the sprouting flowers with a blanket of the cold white stuff. Maybe I am
taunting him, but I did wash up all the winter coats, hats, mittens and scarfs
and hung them up in the winter storage bag downstairs. I took the winter leather
coats into the drycleaners and now I can actually see the coat hooks in the
mudroom. The winter boots are all put neatly away in the basement and up came
the rain boots. The back yard is already a squishy sloppy mess so the rain boots
are definitely needed.
Oh the Joys of Spring!!!

It's finally warming up here as well although my friends and fiance' cautioned me against storing the shovels and salt just yet!
I live in London Ont and ice and cold today -- not sure about the shovel. Late spring here
just wondering about the origins of your blog title. Its fun! Its still cold where I am so I am a little jealous of your crocus pic.
Cute post. Hope it dries up soon!
I like in Minnesota and we are getting one last winter storm. Bleh. At least we know this one won't stick around too long and it lets us get all that snowman making that we didn't do, out of the way now.
I love spring...I'm a spring baby. Love it when all the daffodils start to come out.

Hi Zoe, The name for my blog came from a saying that was used often by some. If I complained about something I was told to pull up my big girl panties and deal with it! So that saying stuck with me :)
