Let Go of the Winter Funk


The snow is finally melting and there is a glimmer of Spring. During lunch yesterday I inspected the tiny buds just starting to appear on the Dogwood. Tiny buds are also on the lilac I have planted in a large pot on the patio. Also the crocus are just starting to peep out. It's about time.

John told me that I've been a bit on the unbearable side lately. Hard to believe isn't it. The truth is that I've had a few sizable unexpected expenses over the past week or so.

The worst of it was the person I recently sold my home to threatening to sue me over a repair to something I had no idea was broken. As an old realtor friend of mine says who has been in the business for nearly 50 years, "Don't ever do business with a man of the cloth darling. They'll screw you every time." She was oh so right.

There were several other things that occurred but this post is about the anticipation of Spring.

...and I can't wait!

Seems everyone I know has had "unexpected" expenses this month.

There are tiny bits of green popping up around the neighborhood. They make me smile as I walk to work every day.
Cheers!
