This Etsyblogger Carnival theme...Spring :)Do I look forward to Spring? Heck yes!!! I prefer Autumn...but Spring rocks because it means winter is over. O.V.E.R. Done. Kaput. "Snow go bye-bye" as my oldest once said when he was much (much) younger. I just really get sick and tired of the freezing cold and snow. It lasts too long and here in Michigan, it teases us once or twice that it's leaving. Big meanie.
But when Spring finally hits...ahhhh, so much better. I would not say I have SAD, but most Michiganders seems to have a touch of it at some point during all the dreary. And Spring lifts up that veil of blech and I start to feel so much more energized. Which leads me to my Spring activity... cleaning.
I know it's cliche, but I do the whole Spring Cleaning thing. I try not to call it that since I am not doing it simply because of the time of year. I just finally feel like moving, getting off my toosh (which is usually a tad larger than a few months previous) and clear out the clutter. The kids tend to have fewer toys, hubby less clothes and me just less junk after this process has taken hold.
So - gotta go - the sun is almost up :)

ReplyDeleteI am always so happy to hear when they are able to get out and enjoy the sun again!
Great pics :)
My dad is quite the gardener, and iris are his favorite flower. I grew up with over 30 diff varieties of Iris in our front yard, including (of course) the one in your photo.
ReplyDeleteI love Spring, because....flowers begin to bloom, plants green up, and I can go outside without putting layers and layers on. I love Spring because it is almost Summer. And I really love summer.

I'm looking forward to spring too! Especially the sunshine which we lack here in the Pacific Northwest during the winter.
ReplyDeleteI so get what you are writing about - I have felt this winter would never end - even today, the sun is out and I can almost feel spring in the air, but it's cold - too cold for me. I loved your pictures of flowers - was a nice reminder of what will come, eventually :)
