Sunshine at last.


Here comes the sun...is winter really over?
I am seriously considering a lamp for next winter - I'm sure I must be affected by S.A.D.
The sun has peeked around the clouds and we have had a few lovely summer-bright days lately. I have sat in the park after school while the children have expended their energy in the playground. It has been wonderful to be warm and surrounded by light with the evidence of new growth all around.
I feel the urge to dig out the tent and sleeping bags but the nights are still a little too chilly for the sprogs (that's my excuse and I am sticking to it!). Soon, though.
The backyard has gone mad, with huge weeds waving in the breeze and suffocating the few brave tulips that have dared to appear. My task for today is to do battle with the dandelions...wish me luck!
