Roll on Spring

If you are anything like me, you leave for work in the dark and come home in the dark during the long winter months.

I am now at the point where I really just want some sunshine and warm days.

On Thursday one of the ladies I work with had gone for a walk at lunch time and came back and told us about feeling the warmth of the sun on her face, 'spring is on it's way', she said. I  felt like I had missed out on something really special.

It feels like this winter has lasted a long time this year. I am looking forward to the spring, feeling the warmth of the sun and seeing the bulbs pointed green stems push out from the ground and grow into spring flowers.

I have become more and more interested in the weather, are we going to get a glimpse of sun at the weekend?

I am also looking forward to my garden having some colour again and my children being able to play out there without it turning into a mud bath.

I am off work, with my daughters this coming half term and I pray for sunny days, I don't mind if it is cold, just as long as there isn't that dank grey dampness that we have been having.

If the weather is good, I can go and see family and friends in Shropshire, maybe take my girls up the Longmynd  for a run in the heather and say hello a few to sheep.

Roll on spring.
