Are you ready for warmer weather? How do you know?
Five ways that you are DEFINITELY ready.
1. It's been below freezing for the past three weeks. It's still below freezing. But something appears in the sky. It's a yellowish, round thing. Is that a fried egg? You're so happy to realise that no, it's not a fried egg. It's the sun!
2. You bought a bright orange, lacy sweater at the sales today. Nobody wears lacy clothes in the winter. That's okay. When you look in the mirror in your orange lacy sweater you think you're at the beach!
3. You look at the snow that never melts. You keep looking and you look even more. Suddenly you see grass creeping up through the snow. Your heart leaps and you smile, you smile so much that the snow melts. Oh, was that just a dream? It was a lovely dream!
4. You're simply tired of chilling your white wine outside on the front porch. It does work, that's true. And far better than cluttering up your fridge. But, now you're ready for some Chianti or vinto tinto as you think about your upcoming vacation.
5. You refuse to wear your boots. You refuse to wear your scarf. You even refuse to wear your gloves. It's not THAT cold, is it? You tell yourself that it's all in the mind.
