83: welcome spring

 

Today I'm sending out lots of good weather vibes.  This week we finally had our first spring-like day where a jacket wasn't needed.  And then yesterday, for the first day of spring, I woke up to........ you guessed it, snow.  Ugh.  But it didn't last long and it's looking like it's gonna stay relatively nice for a bit.

One thing I've found out about NJ is often we don't have much of a spring.  It goes from snow to summer very quickly.  And sadly, what we do have I can't even enjoy too much because of allergies.  I'm hoping I can medicate enough this year that it's bearable.  Last year nursing prevented me from doing so.  But if I sound a little loopy on here, you'll have to tell me to take it easy on the zyrtec, k?

Anyway, this cute little box is one I picked up in my antique shopping this winter.  I couldn't resist.  I probably paid way too much and when I got home I noticed a little chip, but I don't care.  I love it.

What a nice find - I love it, too! Here in Minnesota we've got a ways to go yet before Spring is fully realized; I just read in the paper that our average snowfall in April is 3".

Very cute! In NC we have a few good weeks before the hot weather kicks in, after the nice Spring weather actually sets in.

In NH we have mud season ; ) Seriously though the snow is melting away. It was nice enough this weekend I was able to get out with the kiddo's and their bikes. Even contemplated a little yard word so -Yah Spring! I know there is more snow to come yet, but I'm oK with that. Just knowing spring is on the way always lightens my mood.

Adorable. I have only one limoge, but I got it in Paris many years ago. A rabbit puching a flower cart and I cherish it. I would have flipped over this one.
