It is a new day--sunshine--"with Lollipops"--cold--icey--wintery---but--- NO SNOW FALLING!- So, it will be a good day--and----- you know what??--- March 20th, Monday---- is---------THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING!-- (That must be the Lollipops!)--- We made it--thru winter--almost----
MONDAY, MARCH 20th, is the 1st Day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere!----
There are some fun facts about Spring____#1. Children grow faster during the Spring
_____#2.Tornadoes are most common in the spring and Allergies occur in the Spring
So why do we enjoy Spring so much?--- Well, the days get longer, flowers begin to bloom, the weather is warmer which means more time outdoors and more sunlight. Serotonin, a hormone in us, is activated by sunlight, and is known as the happiness hormone--making us feel pretty awesome. 
The best part about Spring to me is--I can put away the snowblower (well, eventually!)--Hopefully there will be NO MORE SHOVELLING----we can wear less clothing--

Celebrating the arrival of a new season makes my heart sing--Doncha jess want to dance around?

The year's at the spring
and day's at the morn:
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing,
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in the heaven---
All's right with the world.
Always remember that YOU are a special person--
Sunshine intermittently, but cold, icy, wintery. Sheesh! Enough already. And next week looks like the weather menu incudes rain, every day.
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely celebrating she arrival of Spring . . . if Mother Nature permits it!
Love the Robert Browning poem. Sweet!
And YOU my dear, are a VERY special person! Here’s to a good weekend.
Hugs

Thanks Barb-- We are all so tired of winter aren't she??-- It will be nice to feel some warm air-Lynda
DeleteFreezing cold with wind chills in St.Louis. So ready for warmer temps and SUNSHINE. Forecast for next week is rain and cold BUT Spring will get here.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can store away your snow blower Soon!
Liked all your inserts and poem.
You are an extraordinary lady.
Have a great day. Play your piano.
Hugs
Margene--- What would I ever do without your kind words?--- It is freezing cold here too-- --no more snow blowing for this year but if it continues to snow I might have to break it out--This coming week--on the 22nd, I get to go see the house--- and if that doesn't work out, we are looking to buy a seniors house in a seniors complex-- but in another town-I'd rather be here --so, say a prayer--LOL-Lynda-
DeleteWe are all special in some way..we need to know that and that we are all worthy of love and happiness!
ReplyDeleteWe will all welcome spring, that's for sure! Soon i will see my lilacs!
I will having fun tonight at karaoke singing and dancing.
New computer to come sometime next week. Eye doc appointment, too...follow up for the eye infection. {{{HUGS}}}}
Lynda, did the helper ladies ever reschedule?
The Ladies that say they will help have booked several times-- but never could get in because of weather etc-They have rebooked so maybe one day it will happen *S*---Have so much fun at Karaoke---and yer computer --the new one will be wonderful--Hugs to yu-- Where tis Spring??? Lynda
DeleteI'll be so glad to see spring on Monday. But then it's supposed to rain every day but at least it will be warmer. Hopefully that big stor is gone and you don't have to shovel or blow any snow. Like all your inserts today. Feel good to get back to normal with only 2 dogs? Enjoy the evening.
ReplyDeleteYes, 2 dogs are managable--but--I'd do it again, if it would help Son#3--He is pretty good to get out here to give me a hand--And yes, we care SO anxious for warmer days-! Lynda
DeleteIt sure doesn't feel very Spring-y today... brrrr! But it will get better, we know this!
ReplyDeleteHOPEFULLY it will get better--AND SOONER THAN LATER! --=LOL---- hugs Barb-Lynda
DeleteStill darned cold here, going to be a hard freeze in this part of Texas. Son had to cover all the outdoor pipes, yet again! We are slowly getting over that lousy Covid! Worse than flu, the diarrhea it gives you is unbelievable, stay as far away as you can from anyone who says “it’s just a cold”, ain’t NO cold like this! I hope the house in town works for you!

ReplyDeleteIt's been really sunny, but looks are deceiving because its cold out there. It looks beautiful until you get outside and then you need a heavier coat. I'm ready for spring and to get outside and start planting. Although our last frost date isn't until May so that's not happening soon.
ReplyDeleteChilly down our way.
