from my window | spring snow

good morning snow... Alrighty, now this seems more like it. I woke up this morning to a wonderland of snow. My poor forsythia's branches droop towards the ground covered in the weight of the snow's blanket. The emerging blooms on the smaller shrubs are looking a tad worse for the wear.
Oddly enough, this little snow storm is the closure that I needed on this winter. The rapid ascent into the early Spring weather just seemed too good to be true. I was so incredibly excited by the warm temperatures that I was so tempted to get a jump on this summer's garden, but alas, timing never allowed and no seeds were planted. Now, with this last snow (hopefully) of the season, I can turn my attention fully to the fruits of spring and plant in confidence of warmer days ahead. Now to go unpack the winter coats!

I can't believe you had snow. I had my closure around December 12th :>) Hopefully things will warm up soon so you can get back to your garden!

Mighty brave of you to welcome this! At least we did not get snow ... cold, rain, wind, BUT no snow.
