Springtime

Today is the first day of Spring and it’s not hard to admit I would much rather be outside.  The day looks beautiful through the corner office window (boss’).  It’s a good thing I don’t have one handy.  I would probably be totally useless because I would be staring outside. 

I have always gotten Spring fever.  I can remember sitting in class in high school and hearing the train go by.  I so wanted to be on it going somewhere else.  I can remember saying ‘you’ve been here nine years, you can do four more’ (kindergarten).  Then it was three.  Then it was two.  Then it was one.

I still get that way.  Only now, I tend to get Fall fever too.  When the weather is like this, I want to be out on the open road or somewhere drowning a worm and reading a book; not sitting at a desk doing the same thing over and over again.

Spring does seem to be a little slow in coming this year but Easter is late this year also.  That means we have one more cold snap before spring comes in all its glory.  Then we will probably plunge into summer (it is Texas).  So, being able to enjoy days like today is nice.  And since we are in Daylight Savings time, I will get to when I get off work.  Yea!

So if it’s at all possible, step outside.  Feel the sun on your face and the breeze in your hair. Then thank the Father for such a beautiful day.
