It's here! My second favorite time of the year. Spring heralds summer (my favorite time) and in my mind it is all about beginnings. Everything and anything seems possible in Spring. The flowers come back and you can smell them often times before you see them. On my walk yesterday the jasmine and the honeysuckle were wafting and enticing me. The weather is kinder, gentler. The summer birds start to come back and their laughter and chatter can be heard from sunup to sundown. We get cabin fever and decide to clean our homes and organize our closets. We get to switch out clothes and hang our winter coats up and out of the way! Here in the South of France the change in seasons is not as noticeable as home in Rhode Island but a bit more than Florida. Here, the sun gets warmer, the flowers blossom and the color of the sea changes to a deep and inviting blue. And the summer restaurants along the beach re-open!
I wonder why there aren't Spring resolutions like there are New Year's? I think we should start some.

My resolutions for Spring 2012 (a wonderful excuse to use bullet points!):
- Lose 10 more pounds before summer.
- Drastically cut my hair and get a summer ready style. (suggestions please!)
- Visit the gym while I'm in Florida during April and May regularly and tone up!
- Set time aside every day to work on my book.
- Work on finding a way to sell my crazy crochet animals.
- And come up with a name for my crochet business. (help with this one would be great too!)
Well, I have a ton more resolutions I could add but enough is enough. I want to actually reach these, so let's leave the list there.
How about you? Leave me a comment about your Spring 2012 resolutions!!
