Enough of Winter Weather! (The favourite Canadian passtime of complaining about the weather!)

Last week and early this week I was so looking forward to spring weather. The robins are around, the hyacinths and tulips are coming up, and it was really making me feel more energetic, renewing my ambition on the many little projects I have on the go. Then Wednesday came, and it brought chilling winds and heavy snow! Now yesterday was sunny, and thus far today has dawned bright and sunny but the temperatures are back into the below zero range. I have really just had enough of winter and would be perfectly happy to not see this weather again until December! I was starting find out when my favourite town-wide yard sales are as some are in April, and I was starting to contemplate the annual spring yard clean up. Living on a farm is wonderful, however having a year full of trees inevitably leads to many many branches to be cleaned up come spring. Also occasionally the father in law and my husband leave the bale wrap from the large round bales outside, instead of in the barn, which of course means there are pieces of it all over the place once the snow melts, There is even a large piece caught up in our red maple! I was noticing earlier in the week the quagmire of mud and puddles was starting to dry up and I was hoping to get a start on the clean up this weekend. Now it is far to cold and there are patches of snow again!
