The days are getting longer, the breeze is feeling warmer and my happiness levels are returning. I had a hard winter – the cold and the ice paired with a need to eat my way through January and February. And probably December if I’m being honest with myself. I got out every single day with the puppy (a teenage puppy now) and I hate to think what my mental outlook would have been if I hadn’t done that. Going into winter I pictured myself out in all kinds of weather with the dog, happy, exercising, walking and enjoying the sights but it was more me out in all kinds of weather with the dog, cursing the wind, falling on ice, tromping through snow all with little to no joy in my heart.
Once again, I neglected to put my seeds that need to be cold stratified out in November or December so I have to now cold stratify them in the fridge which is an extra step. Just like with my winter walks – I start each season with an optimistic outlook and I end each season with a feeling of despair that this season will never end. These are small problems in the midst of a country that seems to be gathering a lot of rope to do you know what with but that’s what I’ve got right now.
Here’s to looking forward to the next season. I’m sure I’d be much too happy if I lived in a season-less environment like San Diego. It’s nice to have something to complain about.
