Spring in all her glory

Spring has come. The cherry is in bloom and the happy daffodils welcome everyone!

Spring!

Love love love the change in seasons.
This morning I looked out the window and what did I see? Popcorn popping on the pink cherry tree. And yellow daffodils that I planted last fall with Pat. They look so happy! And the grass is getting greener (I have zoisia....)
I heard peepers at the beach on March 12, 2010. Love the sounds, smells and looks of spring.
The cherry blossoms all over town are about to burst forth.
We are finalizing our NYC trip with Bethany, Andy, Kate and Garry. Tim and Mom are staying home to hold down the home front!
Work is work.
And all is well with HKK.

Bulldozers on the street!

Tonight we have more bulldozers and 2 huge dump trucks on the street in an attempt to maneuver the snow around so the children can safely be bussed to school. I have no idea where they are taking this snow....maybe the Potomac river, but it is not close, or a field, or NOT a parking lot, that is a whole other problem. DC is crippled from this 60 inches of snow.

The news tonight had someone doing my commute home up Connecticut Avenue on six o'clock news. I knew it had been bad this week, but I had no idea it was so newsworthy. It has been brutally awful. Lanes disappear in a blink. A tight 3 lane road becomes 2 and the bottleneck behind the loss of a lane is enough to make me.........call someone on the cell phone and get me to a zen place! See I was not exaggerating.

Come on spring. I know I planted daffodils and red tulips (for my Dad). I just know they will come up.

I think that silly Ground Hog said 6 more weeks of winter. That would take us to the Spring Equinox, where the day and night are equal. I'll take it!

Happy Spring next month everyone!
