TOO MUCH LIKE SPRING

 Oh goiodness! I don't like this warm weather we're having here in Georgia. Today we reached a high of 70. Some days we've been close to 80. Daffodils are emerging and today I noticed that my white azalea is sporting buds and a few blooms.


 I like winter. I enjoy having cold weather where I get to have a fire in the fireplace. I like wearing sweaters and knitted hats and gloves. I think it's supposed to turn cold again in a week or so. I'll be happy when that happens.

I hope you're having a good week. Thanks for dropping by.

  2. That's crazy! No plants here, there's snow on the ground. But right now, we are having a booming thunderstorm and pouring rain. It's the kind of thunder that shakes the house. So strange for Michigan in January. But, more snow is predicted tomorrow.

  3. I feel the same way! In the winter, I am finally rid of heat and bugs. But now it is like spring. We have been 60, but not as hot as you. I want a proper winter!

    1. Winter can be lovely. I like to experience all of it. No fair to feel like spring already!

  4. Those warm temperatures may be welcome to some, but they do not bode well for the environment. But, don’t worry. Trump says it’s all a hoax anyway!

  5. Even in Michigan it was warm yesterday -- 50 (which is rare for us) and 58 this morning. Temps are due to drop this weekend, but wow. I'm no winter fan but this is just weird.

    1. There are some flowers whose seeds do better when they've froze then unfroze (is that a word?). But this is crazy. I want winter.

  6. Azaleas in January is really something! We are having an exceptionally warm winter thus far on the west coast and I would really welcome some cold frosty weather - even snow.
