Day 111, get out the Claritin

The sunny and warm weather today meant lots of yard work for my dad and other people in the neighborhood. That only means one thing- I'm due for an allergy attack. Every Spring I have at least one day where I am totally incapacitated from allergies. And I haven't had that day yet. Now that my dad mowed the front lawn I see Claritin, teary eyes and lots of tissues in my future...

Day 109 is a secret garden

My local produce store is transforming into Easter/spring headquarters. It was equal parts jarring and amazing to see all of the flowers and fresh herbs lining the entrance. Such happy lovely colors definitely made the rainy day more manageable!

Day 94 starts the week off right

Despite some clouds, today was a beautiful Spring day! Temps in the high 60s, not too much wind, plenty of sun - wonderful. It was a perfect opportunity to do a little reading while enjoying an ICED tea outside. Plus I got to sport bare(ish) legs and these fun shoes! All in all not too shabby of a start to the week.

Day 60 looks like Spring

It's Spring! Okay not yet, but it's apparently warm enough for these brave little crocuses to peek out. Hopefully the cold weather won't kill them. I don't want to take any crocus carcass pictures.

Day 49 has a Spring preview

The weather today is beautiful! Perfect for a late afternoon trip to Starbucks for some iced coffee and a treat. My mom (lady in green, not some random weirdo I sat with) and I celebrated the Spring preview by splitting a rice krispie treat or as Starbucks likes to call it, a "marshmallow dream bar." Sadly tomorrow and Sunday will actually feel like February. But for tonight I'm soaking up the warmth by going out for dinner and drinks. Happy Friday, friends!

Day 48 drives with the windows down

Today marks the first day in months that I've driven with the windows down, albeit just a little bit. The weather was lovely in the low 60s today. Tomorrow will be even warmer and tomorrow is Friday - win win! I'm getting way too optimistic about Spring rapidly approaching... (Sidenote: Yes, that is in fact a McCain/Palin bumper sticker on the guardrail. Silly Yardley!)
