Did you feel it?

Yesterday on Mull was decidedly spring like! Did I image it?? I dont think so - it was a very very still day, the sky blue and that big round thing in the sky, the sun, I think its called - its been so long since I've seen it! It was quite mild too but you could feel a change - My daughter and I have been debating when our first daffodil will pop! I say this Saturday she thinks Friday - its like just waiting for Spring to pop her head out - I spent the day demolishing an old shed which had been built in the 60's - real physical work but in the sunshine it was great and at the end of day, with the shed gone the place was transformed - new views to admire - and lots of muscles aching that I didnt know I had.
Now this morning - well - normal service resumed - wet and windy but not cold - but I'm still hopeful (even though its early February) that I can feel Spring just round the corner.

Yes did. The thing I like most about this time of the year is the way everything changes. I know we could still get days of snow or stormy winds but there is the first feeling of warmth in the sun and the day length is beginning to change more markedly a we approach the equinox. Winter is not yet done but we get glimpses that it might soon be.

...and then...when Spring has sprung and gone, we wait and wait and wait for summer...and suddenly its winter again...*sigh*.
