(big sweep sculpture by cossje van bruggen and claes oldenburg)
i don't like winter. i feel like an old lady saying it, but i realy could do with out the cold and snow. the only great thing about winter is watching the happiness on everyone's face when it's over. today, we passed smile after smile while walking through a newly green park.
there is no time for spring cleaning when it's sunny and warm outside.
sorry floors, you will remain dusty for one more day.
Oh I completely know what you mean about the change in everyone's mood as soon as the sun starts to shine. Here in Manchester, as soon as there any hint of heat, students everywhere don their flip flops and sunglasses! It's just a shame it never lasts long here!

hmmm...I'll take your word for it! It's eight below here today - snow and ice and bitter wind. I know it's Canada after all but I'm crying inside! But thank you for the sentiment ...I'll try and stay positive...
