I left the house for sam's club this morning at 6:50. (I needed to get back before Steve had to leave for work) and as I was driving down the street, I had this giddy feeling of anticipation for Spring. The sun was so bright, the roads were clear of snow, and if I didn't have the radio host telling me it was 22 degrees, I would've thought it was much warmer.
I can't describe how good it was to see the sun.
I think I had butterflies for a few seconds.
Oh, what a good feeling. It energized me this morning. I was a cleaning/organizing fool. I couldn't be stopped. In fact I got a little warm while I was working in the house and I changed to a short sleeved shirt. I ran outside to remove the trash, (still in my short sleeve shirt) and it felt warm. It felt good. I haven't felt the warmth of the sun in such a long time. I can't stop smiling just thinking about it!
I checked the temperature when I came in...34 degrees. How can 34 degrees feel good? Warm even? It's official. I've become acclimated to Wisconsin- it's in my blood. 34 degrees feels so good. Really good. I just hope it stays.
Please stay.
I know what you mean!! Today was the first sunny morning we've had in a long while! It feels so energizing! Wow, your Sam's club opens early. Costco needs to get on the bandwagon (they don't open until 10 or some crazy time like that!)
ReplyDeleteI felt the exact same way... we are definitely acclimated. And, it ain't such a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I would like an invite when you go private! I think you have my email. If not...let me know on my blog.

Oh I remember living there (barely) and anything over 29 degrees was finally super warm!!! That is...you don't have to wear a hat or gloves to run in to the grocery store or out in the garage to get something out of the car. :) Happy Spring!

That's hilarious...same thing happened to me yesterday. 40 degrees and I was sweating in my house while blow drying my hair. It was great!

I was going through the same exact thing just the other day! How in the world can 34 degrees feel warm. I was thinking "the snow is melting, I don't even need my warm coat!"
