March has been a Hell of a Lion this year....
I'm really starting to get angry. And don't tell me, "that's because you live in MI, move to FL..." or any of that crap...because I'll just put you on ignore. :P

1. I was just saying that to my brother.
The lion/lamb part, that is. Trying to convince him that the weather will get better soon - he suffers from SAD. But then he reminded me that "April showers bring May flowers" and now *I'm* all depressed. :cry:

3. It just stinks. When I think of snow tonight I want to cry.
On a totally unrelated topic, I used to go to UM Heatlh Care all the time. We could have met up for coffee. :hi:

19. Well next time you're ever in town, you let me know.
I'm always up for some coffee! We could rope MeganMonkey in, too!

2. It's official. We had more snow.
over 10 inches above normal. I must be slipping - I didn't think it was all that bad this year.

9. I'm a transplanted Southerner
several times in my life I made very real plans to move back South but I'm still in the north. I'm beginning to think there is some reason that I'm still here.

10. MrG is a Kentucky boy...not very warm, but warmer. We plan on going
back someday. He doesn't want to live in my home state, WI, and I have no idea why. :)

5. No snow down here, but I haven't seen much of the sun this winter.
That just means we'll have a very colorful spring when all the wildflowers bloom. I try to focus on that.

11. Wildflowers are my favorite. I wish we had more than a 60x120 lawn.
I'd spread seeds everywhere. :hi:

14. We have wildflowers along most every highway.
That's one of the nice things Lady Bird Johnson did for us. There's even a wildflower center named after her here. I expect the rural highways to be filled with people taking pictures in fields of wildflowers soon.

6. Well, the good news is we have water.
Sorry we (Wisconsin) sends the crappy weather to you, but it could be worse...remember you can't drink sunshine.

8. I'm sorry, it's my fault.
Back in January, I said to Mrs R, "Well, this hasn't been all that bad of a winter, has it?"

I'll keep my mouth shut next year.

20. March is the cruelest month...
some poet (Shelley?) wrote that and it is very true this year. But even with all the snow here in NH, I can feel the sun getting warmer and, after all, we have mud season to look forward to!

salt stains. :hi:

About 28 degrees and snowing. It's starting to tick me off, too.
