Spring is upon us!

Although I’m not pleased by the recent time change (darn you for taking away my ability to wake up to sunshine), I am very excited about the fact that it’s almost Spring! I actually got some of my plants into the ground last weekend, although most of them need another two weeks before they can start. Still, putting those little seeds into the new dirt, being excited about the little green seedlings that will soon arrive, it has me in a tizzy! I simply cannot wait for the warmer weather.

My absolute favorite thing about the warm weather is reading outside. I have a hammock, and I love to read during my lunch breaks while swaying gently in the breeze. I tend to hang out in the sunshine as long as I can, until it gets so hot in mid-summer that being out there is unbearable. There’s something lovely about reading in the fresh air. Something special about relaxing in any kind of nature. I’m able to finally do that now and I’m so darn happy.

Which, is probably why my current reading is going much better than I originally anticipated! I thought that I’d barely hit my 52 books in a year goal, but I’m already at 20 books. It’s amazing! This year looks like it’s going to be one of my best reading years in the last three, and I am thrilled. I’ve also loved almost every book I’ve picked up and that’s even better. All in all this is just shaping up to be an excellent year.

So bring on the sunshine, bring on the flowers, and bring on the reading!
