Mississippi winters are very changey. Last night it was 19 degrees and today the weather was sunny and mid-40’s.

I came home from work and started cleaning the house. Yesterday I rescued tons of daffodils from the garden and made some lovely arrangements. Today, I’m finally getting around to cleaning the house so it will provide an appropriate backdrop for the flowers. My daffodils, by the way, came through the 19 degrees without a scratch. But I’m glad the threat of frosty temperatures inspired me to fill the vases.

I tired of cleaning and took my dogs for a brisk walk throught the woods. Obviously it is still winter but I can see a barely perceptible swelling of the buds on the trees in the woods. I think we’re sitting on the cusp of spring.
