Hurry Up Spring...thoughts for a grey day.

January and February have seen lots of rain which has become rather tedious and dreary.
A bit of snow has come our way but nothing that a hot cup of tea and a good book cannot ease.
Have you noticed that Spring is on it's way?


I have grown a wee bit impatient with the gloomy grey skies and have been craving a punch of colour.
I can see why many snowbirds travel south for the warmth and sunny skies.


The snowdrops are still blooming, such resilient little flowers.


Peek ~ a ~ Boo!
I spy with my little eye a crocus.


Masses of croci


I truly believe that beauty can be found everywhere...


Aren't they just so cheerful?
Makes me want to find a purple and orange scarf to wrap around my neck and shout 
"Goodbye Winter Hello Spring!"


Mini cobalt blue iris popping up to greet me from a neighbour's garden.


Those are daffodils showing off in a yard right across from Clover Point.
The salt spray and winds have not deterred their sunny yellow arrival.
Stalwart and sturdy stock these daffs.


Such a cheery tonic on a seaside walk.


Buds on the white ribes...in the front garden of The Humble Bungalow.
It won't be long and we'll be celebrating the new season and I can't wait!
Hurry Up Spring!


Grammy Day this week was a delight and a highlight.
After music class at the Conservatory Isla, Henry, Natalie and I stopped for a bite of lunch.
Our favourite lunch spot has toys to amuse the children which I think is very wise.
Everyone gets a bit of what they need...
some adult chit chat, a delicious lunch, some cuddles, a story and some fun playtime.


The sun came out and the mercury rose to 10 degrees...
I was able to take off my coat.


The Barbour vest worn with my new Burberry scarf was comfy and cozy.
I'm looking forward to wearing lighter clothing and bringing out the summer weight scarves.
Did you know that Hermes scarves are not to be worn in the rain?
It says that right on the card when you purchase one.



It won't be long and I'll be wearing these Ben Simon sneakers and this Hermes scarf.
Bring on the sunshine...


I started to add some of my own sunshine today by painting my nails...


and polishing up my bangles to add some sparkle to the day.


Better yes?


I also wore this silver belt for fun.
It elevates and decorates my $10 jeans.


I like the way they fit and the price is irresistible.

A quick slick of a bright lipstick and I already feel like my disposition is sunnier.


Hurry Up Spring!
