Lions and Lambs

The first day of spring was nearly a week ago and yesterday as I looked out my window what did I see.....? A blizzard!!

I know the old saying, March comes in like either a Lion or a Lamb and leaves in the opposite fashion, however, I think this March is definitely ruled by the Lion.

I can't say I'm sick and frustrated by this winter enough, and I hate hearing I'm living in the wrong province to complain (I know that). But this winter has been excrucatingly long! I'm cold, I'm starting to get aggitated from being in doors all the time, I've had this lingering cold for weeks (probably from lack of "fresh" air) and I'm pasty white from the lack of sun.

I was reminded - while I was on another rant about how I hate winter - that the groundhog did say 6 more weeks of winter, however, hasn't that time come and gone? I hate having to shovell in the spring when I should be seeding my lawn or planting flowers or complaining about rain!

A little stuffed up

I knew I'd be bad at the whole "blog" thing, not that I'm over-whelmingly busy but I am a procrastinator so inevidably I'll find something else to do.

Over the last few weeks (and when I say a few I really mean 4) a plague of queezy stomachs, headaches, backaches, plugged noes and ears, runny eyes and bad coughs has infiltrated my house. That's right, we're sick. I'm sure it all started with the little one and the endless amounts of shared toys that go into her mouth, probably in combination with the crazy changes in the weather. But here we are, the first day of spring and finally feeling a tad bit better. Of course my ears are still plugged and my noes is still producing a crazy amount of snot, but the sun is shinning and I think we're about to see some + temperatures (I'm in need of some viteman D).
