A post about the weather

This is the worst time of year. You get teased with a few warm, sunny days which send you outside to do whatever it is you do when you're buoyed by a fit of spring fever. Inevitably the cold, damp weather rears it's ugly head again and you have cabin fever even worse than you did before the spell of warm weather.

After the excitement of Saturday's Easter egg hunt, Sunday fell like a big, wet blanket. It was cold, gray, and rainy. And depressing. So I sat around and crabbed about how tired and bored I was and how there was nothing to do. It was a bad day. If I could go back and do it over, well, I really wouldn't because the first time was enough.

Then there was yesterday. It was in the 70's! Same thing today! So we went to the park and played! And we kicked around a couple of balls in the backyard! And we blew lots of bubbles! And I bought my first iced coffee of the season! Life is good.

I'm ignoring all of the snow showers that are being forecast for later this week. They're not going to happen anyway. It's going to be mid-70's, low humidity, and sunny everyday from now until September. Or else.
