Roll on Spring

With the sun shining this morning I’m feeling somewhat brighter and even hopeful that spring could be on the way. Nothing is more dreary than weeks of rain in January, and I feel like many are feeling the same levels of disorientation and demotivation lately.

There are daffodils in the shops, crocuses beginning to show their bright colours through the icy soil and a noticeable sign that the days are gradually getting longer as the sun sets later with every passing day.

This time last year I was beginning to plant up some seeds in the conservatory – I must shake off this winter blah and repeat that for this year! Those crocuses which are still to be planted definitely need to go underground. The change of the seasons doesn’t hold back just because we’re in lockdown.

Embracing the change – roll on spring!
