Haven't written for awhile. Thought it about time.
I've been in a bit of a funk recently and while I sit around feeling sorry for myself I have been accomplishing very very little of any importance. Worst of all I am getting on my own nerves!
The weather here in Northwest Ohio this season is certainly not helping my mood one bit! I know we are not the only ones experiencing a late spring, and that complaining about chilly temps and rain, rain and more rain isn't going to make it come faster (believe me, I have been doing that for many weeks and it hasn't worked!!
Well anyway, FINALLY, we did have a couple days last weekend with SUNSHINE! And warm temps, taboot! SPRING!!! FINALLY!
The tulip magnolias and flowering pears began to bloom, daffodil's and tulips in every color, purple and pink hyacinths and little violets (Originally, we brought them from my parents house in Missouri, probably by now, over 30 years ago. These tough little flowers are no longer in my flower beds, where I planted them so long ago, but have seeded themselves all over our back yard.) I have to admit (even with all the doom and gloom) that I smile when I see them because they are a sweet reminder of my special family.
EVERTHING WAS BECOMING BEAUTIFUL! That is, for about 24 hours there, I actually believed we were going to make it. Did I dare sat the word -- SPRING?
I should have known that IT WAS A MISTAKE to voice it because, YESTERDAY, we were RIGHT BACK to 50 degree's and MORE RAIN and MORE FLOODING!
I tried to turn on the weather this afternoon and the SATALLITE would not even work!
I guess, it just didn't think "I COULD HANDLE MORE BAD NEWS!"
BUT, I still have my FAITH and I am STILL hoping that there WILL COME A DAY when I can bask in the sunshine and breath in the warm gentle air of a "PERFECT SPRING DAY".
I read this second to the one you posted later so I can see why you were repentant! Yeah, spring will come to us AND to others, we just have to wait it out.
