It is funny how desperate you can be for those first days of Spring when you are in the throws of winter. You watch the flakes drop...floating and blowing around and you dream of a spring day where the flowers are starting to bud and the landscape is turning a wonderful shade of green.
As you sip your hot tea with many layers of clothing to keep the chill away...you dream of the sun beating down on your yard, forcing growth. While shoveling snow you wish for that moment you can pull your first weed. You crave those joyful moments when you can run out and buy flats of flowers to plant!
Then, the beginning of Spring arrives and you get a taste of warm days to come. NOOOOO...that also means the Junipers, Birches and Pines start their yearly cycle...spreading their pollen across the land.
Now, you welcome the cold and the wet because it dampens down the pollen and allows you to breath.
Wishing ~ Hoping ~ Getting ~ Excepting ~ Wishing ~ Hoping ~ Getting ~ Excepting...and so it goes around.
