it's been a long winter. there are disagreements about as to when winter began. some say the snow started in october, some in november. regardless, it's been a long winter. yesterday was april 7th and it snowed. there are still huge piles of snow everywhere. my yard is done, which is nice, but the reminders of this snowy winter are still all around.
i was struck by the relativity of temperature when i got out of my car at work this morning. i never even gave a second thought to wearing a coat today. i haven't all week. no reason to. it's warmed up and the winter coats are no longer needed.
it was 34 degrees when i arrived at work. not balmy by any means. but at this time of year, after six months of winter like weather, it feels like summer. the same 34 degrees in october would mean winter coat, hat, and gloves....
because it's all relative, now isn't it?
