Default Spring has Sprung!

Its beautiful here where I live. Spring is here! Daffodils are coming
up, probably be blooming soon. I walked my dog today, enjoyed it so
much. The sun felt so good. I can now walk without a cane, and two
blocks instead of one. I think its the weight loss helping with that.
Its the eating healthier a factor too.

Going to be even more beautiful weather this weekend. Plan on having a
cookout. Low Carb Style. I found a recipe for cauliflower potato
salad. Then on the grill some kabobs, with beef and vegetables. Mmmm.
My activity will pick up now. I am so glad winter is almost gone!

Hope other get out and enjoy the beautiful weather where you live.

Default Spring has Sprung!

Well, it's a balmy 40 degrees here in Western New England. The ice is
melting off the roof and for the first time since December, I can see a tiny
patch of ground with dead grass in the middle of the lawn right over the
septic system.

A pothole big enough to swallow a car opened up about a mile away from me,
and driving is now an adventure since every puddle may actually hide a pit
that can take off your wheel. The country roads are slowly turning to mud,
and we are all waiting to see how wet our basements will be when the snow
pack fully melts, since the ground was already saturated last fall from the
endless rains.

Someone please remind me, why do I live here when I could live somewhere
nice? G

Good Question. I moved to the sunny South from Western New England, where I
grew up, 28 years ago. I love it here in the Carolina/Virginia area. The
climate is mild and wonderful.

Ohio here, and I thought winter would never end for sure. Its been
dragging and dragging. Or maybe it comes with getting older. Supposed
to get cold again next week, so taking full advantage of the great
weather now.

Went put putting last night. I am looking forward to more activities
with my sons this year. They love to fish also. So many times the last
few years, I would dish out on activities, becauce of chronic pain and
illness. I am so happy.

Spectacular here, too, with daffodils, hyacinth, jasmine, tulips, etc.

Very cool. I still have a 2-inch thick sheet of ice in my front yard - but
it's a north-facing yard and never gets winter sun. Houses across the street
have bare lawns. No flowers around here yet, alas. But it's bright and sunny
today, and the birds are all cheeping madly. It certainly *feels* like
spring is really coming.

It's supposed to get up to close to 60 degrees here (PA) tomorrow.

We are going on a picnic to a nice, wild state park. We figure to lay
down a tarp under the blanket to stay dry. A bunch of books to lie
outside and read, maybe a bit of a hike.

Picnic menu: meat and cheese tray (peppered ham, salami, summer
sausage, pepperoni, colby, monterey jack, cheddar), thermos of coffee,
half and half, 2-liter of diet orange soda, flax muffins (for me) and
crackers, apple pie and meatloaf sandwiches (for hubby).


Your picnic menu and outing sounds like alot of fun! We have alot of
great State Parks here also. We thought of going a little further to
another State this year, so may look your State Parks up on the
internet. I used to love the apple pie. I about died when seeing how
many carbs is in a slice. Whew!!

Have fun and enjoy yourself!
