Spring Fever!

In NOVEMBER!

Hard to believe that the first weekend in November, in Pennsylvania, found me mowing the law in sweats and a short-sleeve T-shirt, and opening the windows to let in the warm sunshine and breeze.

Its Fall. Its November. I'm used to walking around in warm, thick cable knit sweaters or a heavy college sweatshirt with a turtleneck underneath.

Amazing.

But I'm not complaining. Yesterday, was a day to hang out in the yard, doing yard work, chatting with neighbors and then sitting on the porch reading for a bit.

The mild temps and bright sun have also helped brighten everyone's spirits. A week ago, having experienced more than a full week of gray skies, rainy days and chilly temps, people were grumpy, lethargic, out of sorts.

This weekend, everyone I met was in a good mood. And energized.

I don't even mind that on a breezy, sunny Sunday afternoon I'm at my office punching out a deadline report. If anything, I'll probably get it done quicker so that I can get out of here sooner and enjoy the rest of the afternoon.
