Stronger

Another birthday looms on the horizon

forgetting the wrinkles staring back

hiding the scales that tipped long ago

and ignoring the "I had 2 kids" waistline...

all I want is to be stronger.

Before the Rain???

Tuesday, 8:30 a.m.

I check my iPhone for today's weather: "90% chance of rain by10:00 a.m." 

 I step out into the courtyard in my PJ's...the air is so fresh.

 

It's as good a day as any to start my walking regimen...

Besides, I can see if Spring is on the horizon in my neighborhood.

 

Uh huh...

 



 

Flowering Quince....my favorite Spring flower.

Tulip Trees are a sure sign of coming Spring...

 



And paper whites...yeah baby!

 



Whoopsie....somebody didn't get the Spring message yet...

 



I'm almost done with my 45 minute walk and.....

once again, the weatherman missed the timing of the storm.

 



 

Laurel. Good thing I have a hair appointment today.
