Please remind me that life returns.

  1. Well, it would be impossible to see that here since we are covered in over a foot of snow and advised to not go outdoors today!

    Seriously, it has been a brutal winter! I posted on another blog that I was watching an HGTV show about islands and saw a couple enjoying a warm breeze on their deck and I cried! Like, OMG, that looks so beautiful right now!

  3. Beautiful close up shots!

    Today I think the high is going to be 14 degrees. Currently it's 12.

    Stay warm, my friend!

  4. Official reminder. First, Lillies of the valley. Then crocuses. Daffodils. Tulips.

    Does this help?

  6. Well, mostly it does. My backyard has been under ice so long I'm afraid the grass under it has suffocated.

  7. And once you're done reminding her, please remind me, as I face leaving the office in -20 degree weather. OK, it's Celsius, but still.

  8. It will make spring all the sweeter when it arrives. So I keep telling myself.

  9. I won't fake it as I am frozen here, so I'll just read the comments and try to be cheered up by those who can articulate a response to your request.

  10. Ir's returned every year so far, anyway. Who knows about this year. Seems as though it will never happen. What is the first small sign of spring around there?

  11. I believe you have photographed the seeds of life. Are any of those weeds?

  15. Snowdrops nearly out here and buds bursting on some bushes: and that is the north of the UK so it must be on its way to you. Nearly there now:)

  16. Those are really pretty photos! I think it's interesting they are all of seeds waiting to be cast off. It's been below zero air temps here. Now that I feel a little better I hope to get out in it and walk about all bundled up. Then warm up with homemade hot cocoa and snuggly blankets.
