* Asparagus and strawberries are on sale at the grocery store
* Daffodils are out -- blooming on the dining room table, and popping out of the ground!
* The sun angle has changed....it floods the southern side of the house in the morning, instead of the afternoon. (Something about how our windows were installed.)
* It's time to plant spinach and peas. (Thank you, St. Patrick's Day.)
* We're both antsy as all getout. "Spring fever" is a reality in the Brick household. Mostly expressed in the need to TRAVEL.
* All the t-shirts and tank tops newly resurrected from the back of the closet reveal pasty skin and jiggly arms! (sigh)
And the winner:
* Smells. The house -- musty or 'foody.' The couch, our winter refuge -- stale. Everywhere -- stale. The boys -- full of doggy aromas. I'd love to air out and/or wash everything, including the dogs. but it's snowing like crazy outside. (Another sign of the season.)
Ah, spring.
