Took the storm insert out of the front door today and replaced it with the screen insert. Temps in the mid-50′s, sunshine, and with the kitchen window and front door open, had a chance to air the house out after a long stuffy winter.

Despite the light cover of melting snow on the ground, hung laundry on the line, put the leggy over-wintered mint outside the backdoor for a little real sunshine, and in general, felt like the big blue ball has once again turned on it’s axis.

Spring is in the air. Tulips and daffodils are beginning to poke their heads above the ground. You can hear birdsong again.

Once more, the world’s promise is summoning forth.

Nothing better.
