A Rude Awakening

Our first snowfall is on the books, and I’m already yearning for spring. It probably didn’t help that the snow ambushed us while we were sleeping and arrived with a raw blast of arctic air.

A few days ago I mulched some of my roses and butterfly bushes and noticed that the ground wasn’t even frozen yet (meaning I shouldn’t have been mulching, but that’s another matter), and now I can’t go outside without my eyeballs freezing solid.

So much for easing into winter.

Hi Em,
We were lolled into thinking maybe winter would by-pass us this year because it stayed so pleasant until late in November. But, you’re doing the right thing—thinking spring!! It’s actually just around the corner. In a few weeks, we’ll be in 2011 and once we get through January and February (a short month!), the buds and plants will start stirring!!
