Hijacked by Spring
Mar 9th, 2010 by meg
My blog seems to have been hijacked the last few days by a little thing called spring. Actually, its a big huge thing, because living in New England, we are generally still seeing many inches of snow on the ground, and snowbanks in our driveways.
So the gods graced us with a warm, sunny weekend; the outdoors beckoned, my trusty rake stood in for free-weights and a gym workout, and the grill was busted out for some fabulous cheeseburgers.
When the weather cooperates like that, I turn into this:
Normally, I consider myself a very organized and focused person, but something happens when the weather heats up. If I superimposed the Family Circus dotted line over my backyard, it would show something like this:
Go to garage and get garden tools out.
Stroll down to patio and stare at garden tools for awhile.
Enjoy the sun and wonder if George Hamilton sells those tanning reflectors?
Go back to garage for more garden tools.
Back to patio again.
Hmm, might not a season-opening Bloody Mary might be good now?
Yes, let’s go inside and make one.
Back to garage.
Honey, can we set the new fire pit up and have a test fire?
OMG, we need ingredients for s’mores because those would be SOOOOO good heated on the fire pit!
Have I exhausted you yet?
Hopefully that bit of spring fever has worked it’s way out of my system, but I truly doubt it. As I sit here with my laptop, I look out and literally hear the yard calling “Meg, don’t you want to come out and play?”
Oh, yes, I do indeed!
