Today is the last Sunday of February. <\/p>\n

I am glad to see it go. <\/div>\n
Either we’ve had freezing weather or occasional days of mild weather with harsh gusty winds (dislike wind). <\/div>\n
And little rain. <\/div>\n
Forecasters tell us we’re already in a drought–this may make for a long 2011.<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
March may have winter like days\/nights but in reality it’s the beginning of spring in NC. <\/div>\n
Buds are sprouting, forsythia is blooming, daffodils are appearing, cherry trees are blooming. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Spring is always uplifting for the soul. <\/div>\n
Sunrises & sunsets are glorious. <\/div>\n
The nights are still chilly, but as the day progresses the air warms & swirls around us like bathwater.<\/div>\n
Birds are singing:)<\/div>\n
People become less grumpy:)<\/div>\n
Everybody flocks outdoors.<\/div>\n
I feel joy renewed.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
\u201cExpect to have hope rekindled.
Expect your prayers to be answered in wondrous ways.
The dry seasons in life do not last.
The spring<\/b> rains will come again<\/a><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
