You know it's spring when...

I scrape my legs. Ever since I was a little girl my legs have been covered with scrapes & scabs & bruises. But I love my scars! Each one is a memory from having a really good time. I wear them like badges of honor. Comes from being a nature lover & always wanting to play outside. And sure enough, even now that I'm old, I dared to wear Capri yoga pants on my walk & a stick just jumped up & got me. Big ol scrape signaling Spring is here & summer is on its way! So share your stories or just tell us what it is that you love about spring! It is the season of fresh beginnings & the start of new life. What a wonderful time to change our lives for the better!

    When you actually enjoy cleaning the house and seeing the washing blowing on the line.

    When the wind gusts at over 40 MPH on a seemingly daily basis and routine sand/dust storms.

    When you look outside and get excited because everything looks warm and sunlit...then you actually go outside and realise it's all an illusion and it's still bloody freezing!
