My Favorite Things

The last few days have been sunny and beautiful. I have spent the days outside as much as possible enjoying the mild winter weather.  The snow is melting and I actually saw some green peaking through the ground in my flower bed.  This is very unusual for this time of year.  It is as if spring is early and the temperature prediction for the weekend is 60.  I have looked at the calendar many times to make sure of the date.  The sun and warmth enticed me to buy a bouquet of flowers for my dining room table.  Flowers to me are absolutely beautiful and very visually pleasing to the eye. Sunshine and flowers together are a winning combination.  I can't wait to fill the yard with flowers.

Laney was not as enthused about the winter warm up.  She spent her day lounging on the couch.  I think she is still hibernating. The most activity she got was eating. She refused to share my love for the flowers as she rolled over and sighed as I displayed them in a vase.

Well, it was back on the indoor track this eve for a four mile walk.  Last couple of days I had to let my body rest as I had discovered some sore muscles that I didn't know I had. But, tonight the four miles passed quickly as it seems like a short walk in comparison to twelve. My husband is lucky as he had no pain from walking.  I think  I'll catch a piggy back ride on him next time. Ha! Ha!  I guess that will be a dream.  Life is beautiful!

La beaute est dans le ceil du spectateur.
