Today   ..... the sun is shining  and it is going to go up to plus  8... *S* In some warm regions   plus 8 sure doesn’t sound to promising ~but

 

                               Here in Alberta  Canada  ~ we are happy this particular year to even see the sun shining  ~

 

                               Winter hasn’t seemed  as long as it did~* this year*~ but i suppose~ its because we received   more than the  normal amount of it ~ that we

 

                                usually get~

 

                                I am sitting in the office where i do my blogs  and other work  ~ and there are patio doors   off the deck side~   It has been a most entertaining day today 

 

                                as i am on the computer  i am watching the squirrels  gathering food and running up and down the water  troughs~  on the house~ They are not even paying 

 

                                the least bit of attention to any indoor movement   ~

 

                                There is a bit of a breeze as the windmill in the back yard is turning  nicely~~ `displaying the pretty ~*John Deere colours*~  of yellow and green~ 

   

                             

                                 with still a bit of snow beneath it  ~  watching it recede quite a bit in the last couple of days  ~We have a willow tree in the back yard   also and it

 

                              

                                  actually appears to be budding~ and will soon be opening   ~ I sure do hope that we don’t get a hit of cold weather with snow as~~ that will sure  be bad for that beautiful tree~

  

 

                                 Although  *Mother Nature*  has her own ideas   so we will just have to go with it  ~ *S*and see what comes along~

 

                                 Spring does awaken  ones senses  ~  and  gives you a feeling of a new  ideas  and hope~   Come what may~
