Daydreaming of Spring and Taking Action...


It's hard to admit that spring is still a few months away, but I've begun to take action. Saturday I spent the day cleaning my house- it may not be all that "picked up" but it's clean- like Mmmmm Ohhhh. That clean. As a little gift to myself (as if a clean house isn't enough of a gift) I bought this brightbeautiful blanket. I just put it into the washer and took it out to the line- My neighbors look at me like I'm crazy when I hang our laundry outside at 10below, but since it's nearly 40F today I feel like anyone using their dryer is just plain mad. It may take a little longer but catching the sunshine in your blankets to bring inside is worth the effort. When I close my eyes tonight I might just fall asleep believing the windows have been thrown open and we've made it- Spring has arrive in all her glory...
