5 days of sun

if you haven't been around for the past week, you've been missing out. for nearly a week now we have been enjoying gorgeous, chilly, but sunshiney days that seem to have revived me from my tendency toward winter dullness. it's got me thinking about the things i want to do more of this spring.

i want to open my windows and doors more often.
i want to sit on the porch with a cup of french press and watch the morning come into itself.
i want to go for sunrise hikes.
i want to make time to write, instead of fitting it in between other things.
i want to take more pictures so i will have reminders of these days in the years to come.
i want to wear skirts.

february always has a "teaser:" a week or two of wonderful weather before march's gloom arrives. it's almost cruel how we get our hopes up, and then they are dashed so immediately. but i wouldn't have it any other way: every year, february provides a bright spot, reminds us of the glories of spring and summer, those things that seem so distant come january.

enjoy the sun.
