Longing for some greenery!

After all the snow and ice storms this week, and of course after shoveling snow for approximately five hours yesterday and early this morning I’m tired of seeing white everywhere. I’d like nothing more than to see some green (yes green money too would be nice!).

I really can’t wait for Spring and better weather to arrive. As I write this post I’m lying on the couch. My back is aching from all the shoveling I did. Actually it’s not just aching, it’s spasming. Ow! I sure hope it’s better in the morning when I get up!

The photo above was taken last year I believe. It’s one of my hostas. I’d taken the photo while I was outside looking at the garden as it rained lightly. I think I took quite a few photos that day of plants and flowers with raindrops on them.

So were you hit by all the snow storms passing through Eastern North America? Are you more than ready for spring after that storm? I sure am! It feels like winter won’t ever go away. Maybe I should just embrace winter and look for some Winter Park real estate instead of pining for spring?
