Spring has Sprung, ugh.

TulipsSPRING HAS SPRUNG!

Well, I’m much more interested in Winter than Spring… I see the sun all the time, winter brings the opportunity (how ever small) that I will get to see snow too. Don’t get me wrong, I like the sunny warm weather of the Spring and Summer months. It’s just that in Tennessee we get Sunny warm weather all year long. Even in the winter. ( Damn Global Warming! ) Winter here just means we now have the added possibility of cold and snow, and I really dig that possibility. This Winter has been better in that regard than the last few. I mean, we actually did get some of the white stuff this year. not a lot, but enough to count as snow anyway. I don’t have any good pictures for proof but, I promise we did get some. Hey, they even closed the schools a few times. ( Ok, some of those times there wasn’t ACTUALLY any Snow, it was just really cold. )

People seem to relish Spring and Summer, connecting the two with vacations and other various “times off”… But to me Spring and Summer means one thing.

Part of my YardYardwork.

I hate yardwork. I’m not good at it. And it’s one of those things you “have” to do. And my yard, left unattended, can quickly turn into a Rain Forest. Sure, I could get someone else to do it but, they will want to be paid and who has the money for that?

So, there stems my non-excitment for Spring and Summer. I will have to say one good thing is that the Flowers, when in bloom, are very pretty and my yard seems to have a lot of these weeds Flowers growing. (No thanks to me mind you).

So enjoy your stinkin Spring. Hope you like all this Yardy stuff! 😉
