Spring?

I think spring is coming... maybe... We have +12 C here in Calgary and that's quite the shift from -20C in Winnipeg this past week! Maybe it's just coming from that deep freeze temperature... but I was out there in my shirt sleeves today! It's funny isn't it... in the fall +12 feels really chilly after +20 and +30... but in the spring, +12 feels positvely balmy! It's all relative I suppose... The cats have been chomping at the bit to get outside and chew some grass... whatever dead strands they can find... I think they might have cabin fever... It's that time of year when Canadians (at least those not in Vancouver) come blinking out of their houses and soak in some of that oh-so-delicious sunshine... Sort of coming out of hibernation... And it does feel good!

I've already had 2 posts this morning about not having this entry up! I only had post-dated entries to March 2... and what with the workshop that concluded yesterday, didn't get a chance to post for today! But... we're caught up, and I'll get to get cracking here!

Hey, thanks Gigi.You are so good about getting your posting done...one never knows if someone is sick or, in my case, I wonder what the heck my computer is up to especially since I have had a bit of trouble with it. Yes it is beautiful here too and warm too. Victoria has all of its' Plum Blossoms in bloom...3 weeks early! There are some Rhododendrons in bloom here and one can leave her jacket at home! I am naturally a suspicious Islander who know perfectly well that we can still get some nasty storms and even snow.All the best. D
