This morning I went for my first outdoor walk since last fall and as I rounded the corner I could see my neighbors irises sprouting! To quote the Pointer Sisters, "I'M SO EXCITED!"

Forty-five minutes later as I approached my yard from the other direction I could see my daylilies are sprouting too!

And the snow is melting from my front entry (it faces north so it takes forever). Could real spring weather be in our near future?

Last night I stayed up until 11:30 to finish the snowflakes on the pullover I'm making to donate. This is my first try at designing and knitting a Fair Isle pattern. It was fun to say I did it, but I don't think I want to try it again. I get too impatient and want to just hurry up and get through it. Too much chart reading!

Now I can say, "Been there, done that!"

It's beautiful! It'll be easier to do it again when it's not so soon.
