Spring Miracles

  • I saw daffodils on my bike ride to work this morning. Multiple times. They made me smile.
  • I rode my bike to work this morning.
  • Yesterday, I rode to Goethe Institute for my German class in shirtsleeves.
  • I didn't need to wear socks yesterday with my shoes.
  • The flowering crabs are blooming pink.
  • Forsythia is blooming yellow along the way.
  • The weatherman on the radio yesterday actually said something to the effect of "after four days of overcast weather, Washingtonians will finally see the sun." Four days! Ha!
  • Daylight savings time means that it is light late into the evening.
  • Feels like spring -- and we have two more days before it officially starts!
