It's March 1st! All together now .... YAY!!!
I love March. March holds many special days for me, not the least of which is the beginning of Spring!!
Have I mentioned that I am sooo OVER winter? I don't know what this past winter has been like for you, my friends, but here in Toronto, we have had the worst winter since 2008. Perhaps we've gotten a bit spoiled ... I'm okay with that. I do remember the winters as a child ... drifts of snow nearly as tall as I was, as I would walk to school each morning. Wind chills in the -40's - do I sound like a grandma? lol
But it's true. I know that global warming is not a good thing. Clearly not. And I am so heartbroken when I think of the polar bears. What humans have done to the planet is truly a sin. But I cannot lie, I do like warmer winters with less snow .. less slush.. less ice.
Well, it's almost over, because Spring is just around the corner!
