For the first time in months, we've had a break from the endless snow, freezing cold, and the general dismalness of a harsh winter that seemingly has no end. Alas, we have a taste of what spring shall be, despite the fact that the snow still covers most of the ground. Spring is in the air. I awoke this morning with the sounds of spring in the air, birds singing their collective hearts out. You can finally smell the earth again. Even though its a muddy mess in the areas where the snow has completely melted, its a glorious sight compared to our three months of endless white. The sun is shining, and all is right.
I was able to go out running the other day without feeling cold at all, and infact wishing I had worn something a little lighter. The temperature was about 45 degrees out that day, if thats any indication of the temperature jump. When 45 degrees feels balmy, you know its been a cold winter. Tomorrow I hope to go run, right before I trash my healthy eating habits by taking my nephew out to Steak and Shake for his birthday.
When all is said and done, I am supremely happy that the weather has finally decided to change. Finally.
