another cold

I have another cold or whatever but Im feeling terrible again so I won't be writing about anything interesting today. We are having a rather gloomy day again today. The temp. stayed above freezing though and thats good. It went up to 57 I believe yesterday but we still have the pile of snow in the back yard. We were able to shovel the top off of it finally though so it should be melted by the end of the week if the weather co operates. 
    I just came in from taking a picture of my first crocus in bloom. I guess Spring has arrived even though the snow in the back has not all melted yet and The dirt in the pots is still frozen. It won't be too much longer though because its over 60 already and it actually feels warm. Too bad the sun isn't shinning. I puttered in the yard even though Im not feeling good.... maybe that will make me feel better, who knows. I put the patio table out on the patio and brought 2 chairs up from the basement ~~~ just in case. I also picked up a few little branches that were in the lawn and garden and took as many of the branches as I could out of the pots.... some are still frozen in but I will get them all tomorrow now Im sure. I even peeked under the covers I have over the rose bushes and the bushes are all green under there. I guess I better take it easy there though. I will gradually give them more and more air until I can take them off for good. I had better not get too anxious as this is still March after all.... I remember last year it got really warm and then we got freezing again and it killed a lot of my plants. Hope it comes slower this year. (not too slow though, LOL)

I believe this Spring is going to be very nice compared to last year. I'm hoping anyway. Hope you feel better soon.

Hope your cold doesn't last long. Be sure to drink your orange juice or is it cranberry juice, not sure.

So glad you are beginning to see flowers. That's a good sign. Now, you take care of yourself and get better. Pretty soon your garden will need your attention.
