It's funny - every year at this time people start getting excited about spring. Yes, the days are getting longer so everybody's spirits are lifting... but don't get your hopes up if you live in Calgary! I save myself from disappointment by not getting excited about spring until at least May, preferably June! (I will refer back to this post when my fellow Calgarians start whining about the latest snow storm in late May...)
I haven't been thinking much about gardening at all, actually. February and March are always my crazy-last-ditched-effort-to-get-projects-done-around-the-house-before-gardening-season-begins time! I haven't felt much like posting lately either, frankly - too busy!
But I was wondering if I am always this grinchy at this time of year or if it is particularly bad this year... I checked my posts from last February and it seems I felt about the same last year. I did find something fun to do with those February posts from last year though - make the "wordle" above! I used the software "Many Eyes" which can be found here:

February feels like the 'Wednesday' of the winter - once it is done, all looks brighter and more promising. We just have to plow (yes, snow joke :-) ) ahead. Cool wordle!
