Today Marks the Arrival of Spring

I can’t believe it’s been almost 2 months since I’ve written. So many wonderful things have been going on in my world the past couple of months and sitting down to say hi feel to the wayside. I got to celebrate one of my best friends from Cornell marriage, I visited Fort Worth, TX and Albuquerque, NM and worked super hard throughout. But today is one of those days when I’m so grateful to be alive and I want to tell everyone about the joy of it all, in its utter simplicity.

It reached mid-50s and was more sunny than it’s been in a long time. I opened the run roof on my mini and drove out to my favorite path for a good run and got all that I was hoping for. Honestly I’m not as strong as I was last time I was there, but I enjoyed it just the same. I stopped at the beach to take in the view of the sound – breathtaking after months of winter. The trees are still bear, but the sky is beautiful and the water looks and smells just the same. Our world is SO beautiful and the people in it are lovely. How can one see it all and not believe in such an intentionally beautiful creation?

I got to do some spring cleaning, open up the windows and air this place out. My roommate and I are making great plans for the newly born warm weather and counting down to day light savings next weekend. Finishing the day with the Academy Awards. Sadly, I’ve seen none of the films nominated for best picture, but this makes for a great to-see list. Rachel McAdams, your dress is gorgeous!
