Springtime Excitement

6Well - even though there is still a lot of snow on the ground - I can feeeeeeel Spring weather coming.
Of course, a big weather change usually includes a big flare-up of at least one of my illnesses, and some clusters of migraines, but it also includes some anticipation for activities I can still manage. I may feel ill 100% of the time, I may have pain 100% of the time, and illness might put a damper on every one of these activities, but I am just as excited despite knowing that illness will pervade every moment.

I am excited to go for drives out to the mountains to go for a walk or let Decker swim in the lake.
I am excited to go camping and spend nights beside a campfire under the stars, surrounded by the sweet smell of pine trees and the sound of creek water.
I am excited to bring my bike down from the roof of the garage (okay RJ will be the one getting it down for me).
I am excited to take out my rollerblades from storage and see if I can manage that activity.
I am excited to take out Decker's floating water toys for him to fetch.
I am excited to swim in a lake.
I am excited to go for a kayak.
I am excited to have bonfires in the backyard and barbequed anything.
I am super excited to plant and take care of our garden, to enjoy fresh flowers all the time, to taste freshly grown produce from our own backyard.
I am excited to bring my yoga mat outside.
I am excited to attend the weddings of frienda.
I am excited for more of our own wedding planning, for more sunshine, for more time spent outside, for iced herbal teas and reading on the deck.

There is so much to look forward to.
