The sun has been gracious the past three days. Winter seems to have finally bade good bye. People are shedding off their warm dark clothes. It is the glasses now that has become darker to protect the eyes from the sun. Spring, spring, spring...parks are starting to be alive again and coffee shops have put tables and chairs outside. The problem is, one has to compete for his own nice place. People are just so excited with the sun that they stay even if they have finished drinking their coffee.:)

I woke up today to another snow storm, one that I didn't expect. The third thing I did today (after going to the bathroom and letting the dog out) was to make a new pot of coffee.

Try to end the day with a ginger tea before you go to bed. A warm bath with candle lights would also make you forget about the cold downpour outside.:)

You are so lucky. I don't think Spring will ever get here. We're in the middle of a 2 day snow storm that doesn't look like it's going to stop any time soon. I would give anything to see the sun!

We had a couple of sunny days in the beginning of the month, but unfortunately the cold weather has returned and I think that the weekend is going to be quite cold. You are lucky to live at a place where the winter is over 
I wish that we were also able to sit outside, but it is far too cold for that at the moment. Some of the cafes and restaurants did start to move their chairs and tables outside, but the chairs are all empty, because it is still cold and everyone prefers to sit inside. In June, July and August we are usually able to sit outside and I love to visit a cafe and sit outside when the weather is sunny.

I do hope the sun continues on. Spring should start in the 20th of March here so there is still a possibility that one last snow fall would come in the coming days.
