Spring

Spring is finally approaching!! Spring is one of those seasons that by the time I figure out it's really here, it's gone. I have been really heavily cleaning lately, opening the windows on really nice days, etc. It amazes me how much stuff can really accumulate over such a short period as winter. Spring is the one time a year that I get rid of a lot of stuff, and really get outside to clean up the damage of winter to our yard. This winter has taught me so much though about myself and the world outside of myself. I have joined a book club which I LOVE, learned a lot more about quilt stitching and actually following patterns, became an active member of weight watchers (for the first time in my life I really love the meetings) and the group of women that are there look forward to seeing me each week, and have picked up a ton of healthy recipes that have become new meals for my family. I'm glad to see winter go this year, but I will always treasure what I learned this winter.
