Sunday, not quite afternoon

ksmithThe sun is struggling to come out. Stiff breeze, temps in the 40s, and the snowmelt is dripping off the eaves and rattling down the gutters. I realize it could be a false alarm--this is the Midwest and it is mid-February. Still could be looking at more snow. Possibly even a lot more snow.
But I'm not thinking about that today. I have turned down the furnace and opened windows to let in fresh air--that's what heavy sweatshirts are for. Bought more seeds yesterday: mesclun mix, basil collection. Broccoli raab, for something new and different. The basil will go in a big, fat container on the deck, methinks. The raised bed will be for tomatoes, bell peppers, and lettuces.
I don't want to wish the days away, but I want it to be June. I want to sit out on the deck and watch the pups play and listen to the birds and feel the sun on my face.
