Ok Mother Nature, don't you know it's spring?

Yeah I know what you mean. We are also still in snow country and freeze your little tush off weather. Which we rarely ever get snow at all. I just want sunshine and cool breezes. Especially now that my son learned how to walk over the fall season so he is ready to go crazy on the playgrounds, zoo, etc. I want to not use my heater anymore.

I don't mind snow (it's a very important part of a canadian winter haha)

I am at work right now, looking out the window and it is still snowing. Welcome to spring in Northeast Ohio. Actually, we have the whole month of April yet to go through, where we can still have snow and lots of it. Last year, it snowed during the first week of May, but a few days later it was in the high 70's.

Well, Lotus Land is being Lotus Land today, so I'll gloat a little....

The herbs got their Spring "haircut" this morning...





The quince -- a closeup...



...and looking through its branches to the very blue sky...



By the front walk, a few mini-daffs have been out for a couple of weeks...



And on the boulevard, just one of the many trees in blossom...



That's all you get today, 'cuz to take more I'd have to exchange my slippers for street shoes, and put a little more over my T-shirt. Temp was 12 C, last I looked, so low 50s...

I just want to get my houseplants moved out!

They winter in my half bath with a grow light because the cats eat them otherwise.
After a couple months, I'm ready to put them anywhere else.

Looks like it might slowly be getting warmer though, hopefully in a week or two I can put them out for the season.


Love that last picture!
I always wanted flowering plums, but I want someone else to clean the post bloom mess

It's been beautiful here in So Cal the last couple of days. I here we're supposed to get some rain within the next day or so.

Susie, come on down and visit! It's 74 right now

Although we're sposed to get snow flurries tonight - seriously! It was GORGEOUS here today!

Silly MN weather!

We had tornadoes a week ago, then a blizzard warning this week. What the.....??? And one day this coming week it's supposed to be 69 degrees. I give up! Crazy weather!

It's beautiful here today, but they are threatening thunder storms....... I love storms!

It's in the 70s here. It stormed some this morning and then the sun came out. Now it's cloudy, but if it's warm, I don't care!
