Be careful what you wish for.....

Lately all the talk has been weather and when will winter end. It has been an extra long season of arctic cold and plentiful snow. For weeks, folks have been counting down the days until the calendar says "Spring."  Seriously, what does a calendar know? Two days ago Mother Nature (and Lake Ontario) gifted us with nearly a foot of fresh, white snow.  Yesterday she made us shiver with below zero temperatures once again.  Everyone was pleading with their inside and outside voices, "please bring us Spring."


Be careful what you wish for.......................I cried Uncle and confessed that I, too, was over the beauty of winter white and ready for spring.....so I googled spring, just for the hell of it and this was the third picture presented.


Maybe when we wish for spring, this is what we get: So, what do you do when Mother Nature hands you lemons, you make lemonade. I'm always looking for a spring project, usually outside, but this just might do the trick.  There is no shortage of artwork, photos or greeting cards this time of year and this may just be the perfect décor for an accent wall.  So, rather than bitch about the snow, which is actually falling again as I type, I will be heading to the second hand store and finding "Spring" there.
If the mountain won't come to Mohammed, then Mom will go the mountain. Spring will soon be in the air........................and on the wall !!!
