Hey everyone  -  I looked out my bedroom window yesterday and saw something green poking up out of the ground.  I was convinced that it couldn't be anything growing because it has been so cold, but, lo and behold, I have a group of crocuses  sprouting!!!  Here in the Great White North of southwestern Ontario, Canada.  What do you think of that?
Does anyone else have any green "stuff" coming up?  Ohio or Michigan or New York??  Anything up??  Makes me think that there will really be a spring this year, after all.

Do you think that it's too soon to start planting my annuals??  LOL  can't wait for spring!!!

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

It got up to 65* here today but it was so windy. The winds were 24 mph with gusts up to 32 mph. It is now almost 8 p.m. and the temperature is still 55*.
Eileen got me on to the Weather Channel on my computer. It shows the page for Portage and then there is an icon for the temperature down by the clock. It is nice to see that and know what it is outside. Pretty cool. It shows the storm warnings and watches too. Nice to know those too.

I don't see anything blooming but someone told me the other day that they saw the first robin so maybe spring is getting ready to be here. I sure hope so winter is so very depressing.

I had the door and windows open this afternoon. Now I have the furnace on so go figure! And to top that off I am sitting here wrapped in my extra warm Lucy throw.

Nuthin growin here, but its 11:15PM right now and the temp is still 53, thats a nice change. Supposed to get rain and high winds  tonight and tomorrow though, Then cold again and possible snow showers this weekend. Some folks have reported that they have seen robins though, so maybe there is hope for Indiana after all!! LOL

I can't wait to sit on the swing on the patio and read a good book and sip on a glass of tea! CMON SPRING!

Blessings

OMGosh , No kidding . That is so exciting. I have plenty but haven't looked to see if anything is sprouting yet. I sure will look on my way home. Ahhh glorious spring!! But I am not fooled, we have dreadful March's around here. Snow predicted for this weekend, oh well ,the couple of nice days were a nice break ..and a promise of things to come..Thanks for sharing

Spring is on the way!  I have daffodils showing yellow color, crocus and also those sweet violets that  naturalize and bloom beneath my trees this time of year.  I love Spring. 

However, it snowed all the way down to 1000 feet last night, so it is not coming soon!  The groundhog might have been right.
