I pick the darnedest weather to be under the weather.

It’s a warm, sunny 67°, and instead of being out gardening, I’ve felt like crap for days, as I periodically do.  But never mind that; I had to get out there anyway, and lo and behold, this is what I found!  Bunches of crocuses in full bloom!  So exciting!

Other flowers are trying to poke their heads out, too.  Misu was busy plowing the garden, then getting a drink of rainwater (finally thawed) after all her exertions.  I feel like a lazy slacker, being sick.

My son is far away, “working” in a Caribbean tropical paradise, far more exotic than a few brave crocuses, but I’ll take anything I can get.  Flowers are affordable therapy.
