Spring?

April 10, 2015

First day of spring was March 2oth.  As I type, I am still thawing out my hands from a trip to the outdoor garden center.

P1060772
I failed to see the 39 degree, windy forecast on my little weather thing in the kitchen before I left the house.

P1060754
Froze to death in my thin raincoat. Serves me right for thinking I could go buy stuff to plant in the yard in April!

P1060757
I thought I saw signs of spring popping up, but now I’m not so sure?

P1060790  P1060788
We just replaced the batteries in our gas fireplace remote.

P1060756
I pulled my black down coat back OUT of the closet.

P1060792
I have socks on.

P1060785
I am making chili for dinner.

P1060765
Freshly washed bathing suits from a recent senior mom/daughter trip are mocking me from across the room.

P1060747  P1060750  P1060742
Our Patagonia collection is alive and well and still in play.

P1060762
My Weather Channel app has the nerve to say it will be SIXTY degrees later this week!

P1060793
Initially, I wanted to identify each one of these plants in the photos for easy purchasing/planting.

P1060783
But I couldn’t keep my cold, ungloved hands out of my pockets long enough to write anything down.

P1060755
So, in the meantime….  I will refer to all this color for the next few days until it warms up and I can’t see my breath outside.

P1060797
Can I pretend its spring if I’m still sleeping on flannel sheets?

I have loved design ever since I painted my bedroom walls high-gloss lime green in the fourth grade. A lifelong hobby, mixing low cost items with a few pricier pieces thrown in, has become The Wry Home. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t!
