Slice of Life ~ Day 11 of 31





It’s that time of year when:
  • a variety of colors seem to burst forth from the once barren trees of winter 
  • pollen and mold spores begin to create chaos... causing the dreaded sneezing, stuffy nose, and itching 
  • heat and humidity, combined with the need to expose more skin, causes anguish if weight has been gained during the winter months 
  • feet that have been protected all winter long are eager to appear with nothing but flip-flops
  • robins begin to return singing their melodious morning songs 
  • bonfire length hot dog forks wait patiently for a beautiful day 
  • the drone of lawnmowers as they play a familiar song 

The list could go on...and on....

It's definitely that time of year again.

  3. I'm glad to have found you from your comment. Your list is so similar to mine, but more observations of the coming spring. I think you're yearning for those warm weather things, right? Thanks!

  4. I like your style of writing- it reminds of when I hear something vividly descriptive and I get the children to either repeat or close their eyes and "See" it....
