Get ready for Spring!

Come on now.....I'm trying to think positively while my feet become blocks of ice on this cold, concrete studio floor. The boyfriend and I are going to Mexico the last week of March and it won't be too soon! He's a native Colorado Springsian and claims that this is the most unusual Winter he has experienced here in quite some time. My parents would agree, I'm sure, as they "hunker down" in their RV, stranded in the Hill Country in Texas. Their getaway trip after the holidays turned into an icy retreat, complete with icicles precariously hanging from the roof of their traveling home to the ground. Last call from them yesterday was a comforting one, letting me know they were going to stay put until this third storm goes on through. Funny, I've become the worried parent in a complete role reversal. Running out to get more reading material, getting plenty of naps, along with lively games of dominoes to fend off boredom have now become their daily routine. Personally, it's been heck for business here. Who wants to think about screening 6.1 oz., short-sleeve t-shirts when it's 0 degrees outside? Things are picking up now, with the sale going on, but sure am looking forward to the busy Spring season.
I'm not ready to start playing dominoes quite yet.
