So I never thought I'd be saying this, but...

...enough with the snow, alright already!!!!!!!!!!

I moved to the outer islands of the U.S. because I wanted more Four Seasons weather. However, it's April 19th and I need a little spring!!!

Don't get me wrong, I would still take cold, frosty weather over a hot spell any day. But, as Delicate Flower would say, this year is a weirdie. The daffodils have long since come and gone, I have a small army of tulips in my front garden, I am growing all kinds of seeds in pots that I put outside to harden and all of a sudden the weekend forecast is for snow?? G-r-r-r!

I was looking forward to a lovely weekend of burrowing in the garden, killing dandelions and planting sweet peas. Now, I am stuck inside doing stuff like cleaning the bathroom...ick. Not that it doesn't need to be cleaned--(I am about two steps away from being shut down by the health department,) but it's the principle of the thing.

It's hard to believe that just last Saturday, we were at a lu'au where it was so warm we were sweating! Now, here we are, tucking in for an arctic weekend.

I'm sure I'll be missing this coolness come July, but right now, these are trying times for a gardener :(
