Winter? I'm Over it. { Five Ways to Scratch Your Spring Itch }
Thunder Bay is apparently getting 15cm more snow on Thursday. Just tonight I paid some serious money for big fancy machines to scrape up last weekend's snow off of my driveway. (Tip: leave a contact number for your "plow guy" if you go out of town during winter, and enough cash to cover it. Your house sitter does not love you enough to shovel for you. Even if it's your sister.)
I wish my part of the globe didn't clutch onto winter like it was their last Rolo. I am itching for it to be warm enough to spraypaint things outside. Or to watch things grow. Or to put away the ugly winter rugs that absorb gross winter boot juices. I want sunshine!
Spring is still nowhere in sight and I am itching to get a move on. If you're in the same boat, here are a few things you can do to feel the joyous effects of spring without having the luxury of an actual change of seasons.
I am pretty happy with the results of these five tricks so far, and they are super easy to accomplish. I now leave you with a music video that pulls my heartstrings in amazing ways.

I think I'm the only person left who doesn't want winter to be over. But it would be nice to open the windows wide and all afternoon to get some fresh air into my house.
ReplyDeleteAnd love the suggestion for changing up something you look at everyday. It's like the idea of rotating artwork on your walls. Just a little mix up. A good April project for me!
I've heard TBay has about 2 more months of this. So. If your winter is ending in TO, feel free to come relish in ours! :)
DeleteThank you for your comments! I love reading them all and will reply when I can.
