The bulbs in my flower beds have already started sprouting, but I’m not quite ready for the coziness of winter to be over. Anyone else?
Recent Winter Joys:
Hands around a warm mug of coffee
Fuzzy-lined Crocs
A CrackleFlame starter log in my fireplace
My dog, Kimmy, snuggled up beside me in bed
Sherpa throws wrapped around me
TV Marathons
Stocking caps; I will never call them beanies
Grocery Delivery so I don’t have to leave my house
Soup-All of the soups
Evening Cup of hot Dreamscape Tea
Not having to mow the grass
The dog poop freezing so it’s easy to clean up
Maybe another reason I’m hesitant to move on from this season is Ghillie. He was my best friend and companion for the last 11 years. A Briard (French Sheep Dog), a heart wrapped in fur. He loved me above all, and I feel like a new season will make him more a part of my past than a current part of my heart. I knew it was coming, but I didn’t figure on the guilt in loving again. Kimmy came to me right before Ghillie passed. She is sweet, and I loved her instantly.
Spring is a new season. My heart will always be a little broken, but with Spring comes a new beginning.
The doors of the world have started to creak open. We tiptoe out of our houses and dunk our toes in the water. It feels so good, but it's still a little chilly for me. I'll stay on the dock for a while longer. It's what I need and that's ok.
What do you do when you start to struggle? When I feel like I'm drowning, I lay back and float until the feeling passes.
