Stupid Geese!

I need Spring!

Old man Winter has been a real b*st*rd this year!

So when two days ago, I saw a flock of geese flying North overhead, I got pretty excited. It hit 50 degrees that day...But the next morning, yesterday, I woke up to snowfall, high winds and whiteout conditions. We got over eight inches of new snow, and the temperature dropped below zero over night.

Stupid Geese!

What have you got that can help me think Spring? Something? Anything?

      I can't do Spring cleaning until it's warm enough to open all of the doors and windows, hello? :rolleyes:

      You have to do better than that Dan, you're slipping!

        Women...always with the excuses.

        Funny how it's never too cold to buy shoes.

          Funny? That's not funny at all, it's truth! :p

          And, I'm not allergic to shoes like I am dust.

          Oh, and thanks for the encouragement. Going out and buying new shoes and sandals for the upcoming Spring season and then some new outfits to match them is just the ticket to help me think Spring.

      You made me laugh out loud. Then my wife asks what's so funny...

      Even though it was risky, I had to show it to her.

    My wife's going to be up your way this weekend. I'll tell her to stop by and you can take her with you. She has the address.

      Ooooh! Do it. That sounds wonderfully wicked!

      I'll take her to Great Lakes Crossing. People come from all over the world to shop here. And the shoe selection is fantastic not to mention all the clothing stores as well.

        Well, she's only going to be about 40 miles away in Brighton...

        (Can you smell Detroit from there?)

          No, not at all.

          Not in Brighton or here. I wouldn't live here if it did.

    Shoes? When I get ready for spring, I put my rock pick, crowbar, chisel, and backpack in my rig.

    Of course, spring is here already. I just came in from having a smoke and cup of coffee in the sun and watching the chipmunks playing.

    Hmm - Terra, you want spring now? Put on your little pink lace jacket with the Betty Boop patch on the back and get in your car and DRIVE to it.

      I did that once back in 2009. I left and went to visit my brother in Missouri and didn't come back until September. Hubby didn't like it!

      Actually, that's when I joined the WF. It was when I was at my brother's house that August.

          I live in Northeast Ohio,

          The winter has been brutal this year.

          This is the first year ever that I am actually looking forward to cutting
          the grass.

    It'd be really bad if you saw the geese flying South again.
