Do you get
spring fever? Me too. Finally I begin to get that surge of energy
that has me asking “what should I do first?” and none of the options involve
food or watching TV. That’s a sign of
spring.
I think yesterday I hit a real low
driving in to work but this morning I am feeling that upward surge that is
telling me that spring is just around the corner. Sure, I can expect another burst of snow
before we finally start to see the spring rains and green grass. Already I am seeing geese on the curb side
downtown which is always a harbinger of spring.
I get a kick out of looking out for them (in years past when I was a passenger,
of course) and then spotting them on high rise rooftops or window ledges. Twice I’ve seen some adorable geese leading
their gosling either across Hwy 2 and the other time across the YWCA courtyard,
impervious to cars, pointing people and protesting ducks.
Another sign of spring is busy car washes
even though this winter I’ve washed my car more often than I have in the last 4
years (due to the constant slush on the roads).
I’d like to say that this
weekend will see me polishing my windows but instead, poor me, I will be
packing and organizing my trip to NYC. Yes,
I am off to the Big Apple next week and am feeling very excited about seeing my
first Broadway show (“Wicked”). This
time we have an extra day just for site seeing and my friend and I have been
looking at the website trying to decide how we can be most efficient without
crippling each other!
I am happy to say that I believe I am out
of the winter doldrums and well on the way to being active again. Thank Mother Nature.
