Spring always makes me feel a bit sentimental




Your Love Word is "Devotion"



For you, love is a doing word. You prove your love with the actions you take every day.

You are loyal and true to whoever you're in a relationship with. You don't give up unless things are absolutely hopeless.



You don't love easily or quickly. You only will fall for someone you truly and completely adore.

Once you love, you love intensely. You take love very seriously.


B+ . . . hmmmm




You Have A Type B+ Personality



You're a pro at going with the flow

You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer

A total joy to be around, people crave your stability.



While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity.

Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done

You're passionate - just selective about your passions

St. Patrick's Day Greeters



The St. Patrick's Day greeters are out on the back porch now. The green and white is also appropriate as it is "March Madness" season in NCAA basketball world, and we shirley hope the MSU Spartans make it to the tournament this year. We'll know tonight!

Spring!

I just saw an unfamiliar bird out on the lilac tree. And then it dawned on me . . . it was a robin!

I can't believe it looks like this in March!



Okay, the usual question is "will we have a white Christmas?" The question now is "will the snow be gone by Easter?"

Yikes!

Sparkly morning




Hopefully we won't have too many more "sparkly" mornings.

Winter Sense, eh? Hmmm




Your Winter Sense is Sight



You are a very visual person, and some of your strongest memories are around things you've seen in your life.

You simply like the way winter looks. This season may seem dead to most people, but it's very alive to you.



You enjoy all the sites of winter - from starry winter nights to dancing holiday lights.

You think this is the most beautiful time of the year. Snow makes everything a little more magical.


Pearl is one of my nicknames

But I don't really think this fits.





You Are a Cream Pearl



You are emotionally stable and serene. You have cultivated gratitude and peace in your life.

You are both intensely alive and totally easygoing. You roll with the punches.



You are good natured and purposely try to keep things simple. You deflect drama.

Friends turn to you during times of trouble. You are optimistic and reassuring.

More Snow



What was pretty and enchanting in December is getting awfully old in February. *sigh* Another ten inches yesterday and today. I moved the sled from its ornamental spot in front of the studio barn up to the garage. It may come in handy!

Milestones



A first: Getting to watch one of the nieces choose her wedding gown. It was great to be there with her folks and my mom and great-nephew Caleb.

Heat Wave



We didn't have a January thaw this year, but we surely had a February one. We hit 55 degrees F two days in a row. Living on the farm you can see upclose the joys of a thaw . . . the fields lose their water and it comes rolling through to the drainage ditches. Unfortunately, one of the tiles in the field is broken, so I get a lot of water. Fortunately, the tiles in the yard were routed a oouple of years ago and the lake has subsided.
