Spring is coming!

Okay, so the calendar claims that Sunday is the first day of spring, we shall see. To be fair, however, the temperatures have climbed a lot recently. It was in the high 30s yesterday and I heard that it is supposed to be in the 40s this weekend. This is just in time for the sugaring season to start. Speaking of sugaring...I am on a private mission to get Chris to have some "sugar on snow." Can you believe he's never had it? This weekend is the Vermont Maple Sugar Open House and many sugarhouses offer sugar on snow and other maple goodies, unfortunately none of the sugarhouses are near us.

Back to the weather for a minute, it was warm enough and light enough when I got home from work last night to take my first Spring run. It was great! The cold air was a little rough on the asthmatic lungs and I'm still a little bit froggy, but it was worth it.

Guess that's it for now...catch you later.

So, if you are a regular visitor to our blog page, you've by now noticed that change. This is a much easier way to update the page, and I thought I'd take advantage of it. No, it doesn't mean I'll get any better at updating it.

I took yesterday off to visit the florist. I have officially chosen flowers. I never knew that a simple thing like flowers could cause so much stress! What is up with that? Since I was out and about anyway I mailed the invitations. Let the RSVPs start pouring in!

Next week we are meeting with both ministers, and Chris has more doctors appointments. If you were unaware he has torn a ligament in his wrist. He did this two months ago and he isn't fixed yet. He is currently scheduled to have surgery in April. Supposedly he will be out of a cast in time for our wedding, but we are still unsure about that. Keep your fingers crossed. I really do hope he is better soon, he is in pain 24 hours a day and I just feel terrible as there is nothing I can do to help.

I am currently working on posting my pictures of my recent trip to Hawaii. I've been so swamped since I got back that I simply haven't had time. I have to say that it was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. I would say to anyone considering going...stay away from Honolulu. It is simply to commercial. I didn't get to go off the island of Oahu, but I've heard that other islands are much more panoramic.
