Morning Meanderings…. a Minnesota Rant

a big improvementHow pathetic is this blog this week?  🙂  I mean seriously… the last few days all I have had time to post is my meanderings…..  today I have a low key afternoon – I should be able to catch up on the review that should have went up yesterday, giveaways that need to end…

ANYWAY…. This morning I am driving Chance to school and it is 28 degrees.  28!  I am wearing a long sweater jacket that I am hoping makes me look super cool like Neo in The Matrix (but of course more feminine).

I think it is funny that 28 degrees today is nothing like 28 degrees in March.  Now I am wining that I should have started the Durango earlier so it would have been warm when we got in.  I have the heat on and the windowns up tight.  I complain all the way out of the driveway about the cold and how Minnesota and I are not friends at this time of year.

On the flip of that…. after a long Minnesota winter of temperatures dipping way below zero, icy roads, shoveling sidewalks and the decks…. 28 degrees in March is like a heat wave.  I am outside that time of year in capris and a t shirt…. loving the crisp after winter sun and praising all things that are green or soon to be green.

I took a picture of this gorgeous tree on my way through town this morning…. perhaps looking at it occasionally will help me get through the long cool (who am I kidding?)  COLD days ahead….

Whats the weather like in your corner of the world?
