This totally calls for some all-caps. SPRING!!!! AT LONG LAST!!!
Google reminds us about the coming of spring with a lovely little graphic that includes...a ghost? Sumo wrestler? Klan member going out to fill his car with gas? I don't know about that thing. But the other pictures are lovely.
I'm showing my support for the changing of the seasons with my new striped maxi skirt and my toes are enjoying the freedom of not being stuffed inside boots.
And because I'm so happy it's spring, I took a picture with my favorite co-worker.
Wouldn't it be awesome if a manatee worked with me? One can only dream. Oh well. A picture is pretty good, too. He looks like he wants to hug me!!
I don't know if I'll have time for much spring celebrating today...maybe I'll take a stroll at lunch. But if the weather holds up, I hope to plant my zinnia seeds this weekend!
It's technically still a little early for planting, but I'm willing to take a gamble on these. If we end up getting another freeze, I'll just plant some more...they're super cheap and I have plenty, obviously. I just want to go ahead and do it now (instead of waiting three more weeks til it will be officially 'safe') because if my gamble pays off, I'll be getting bouquets of loveliness three works earlier. Which is obviously awesome.
I'm not taking the same gamble with my veggies, though. I'm at least a few weekends away from feeling safe enough to put them in. Any other Zone 7 gardeners planting (or not) yet?
That's all I've got. It's spring finally. I'm happy. The end.
Woohoo! Happy Spring! Now if it only FELT like Spring!
ReplyDeleteAhh spring, it still feels a ways away here in Ohio yet. But someday, it will warm up. Fingers crossed. I also love your nail polish color!
ReplyDeleteYay!!! HAPPY SPRING! Here's hoping Mother Nature gets the memo sooner than later this year--I'm ready to go play in the dirt!
ReplyDeleteoh girl, I am SO ready for Spring. We need new life up here in IN! Thankfully some bulbs are popping up, so I have hope! Cannot wait to plant annuals, but it will be awhile for us!
ReplyDeleteI love manatees.
ReplyDeleteNow I want to get a pedicure and a maxi shirt! Love the nail polish color! Thank goodness Spring is here!!!!
ReplyDeletei had planned on putting in veggie seeds this weekend, but with the forecasted freeze within a week, i'm not messing around. also, supah cute sandals!
ReplyDeleteI've been wearing my spring skirts/dresses and sandals all week...yay for spring!!! I wondered too what the ghost type thing had to do with spring also? Weird.
ReplyDeleteYay spring! And I was totally wondering what that blob on google was too...
ReplyDeleteoooooo i LOVE manatees! When we used to live in Florida, you could often spot them downtown in the water waiting for someone to throw in a head of cabbage! They are so cute. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for spring! Camille and I went on a 30 minute walk today and it was glorious!
ReplyDeletePretty toes! I guess the first day of spring was a bad time to try my new army green (almost black) polish.
ReplyDeleteI think it's the abominable snowman with a watering can.
ReplyDeleteYAY so glad my card made its way onto your office wall! You should name the little guy (or girl)...
ReplyDeleteThe nail polish community demands that you give brand and color name with every cute polish picture posted. I will give you a pass this one time. :)
ReplyDeleteAhhh!!! I have failed the nail polish community!! My deepest apologies!! :) The fingers are Essie Cascade Cool, toes are Essie Mint Candy Apple.
DeleteThe unspoken rule in Colorado is no planting until Mother's Day! Much too likely to get another freeze and more snow before then. Though we still get it sometimes after then. So ready for spring...
ReplyDeleteIt is technically a "blob lady" and the artist is from Athens, Georgia so you can go and interview her personally!

Also I won't be doing any planting outside until probably the end of May but then we're Zone 5B. Woo hoo?!?!
That manatee definitely wants to hug you! Happy Spring!
ReplyDeleteI have a maxi skirt just like that! May have to break it out for spring. Love your blue toes!
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring!!
Love the colors on your fingers and toes and your shoes are totes adorable! Wishing it planting time here...soon though. :)
ReplyDeletePretty nails! I LOVE zinnias! We won't be gardening this year, except for our herbs on the balcony and maybe some tomatoes, so we won't be planting for a few weeks yet. Yesterday it was 45 degrees ABOVE zero here...this morning, however, we have ice pellets and snow for the morning commute. Spring is on its way, though!!
ReplyDeleteK! Where did you get your skirt from. I just bought a one (seemingly identical) from Gap.. just wondering if it is the same! :)
