Here's a brief attempt at something that will break my dry spell on this blog. I haven't done this in a while so here goes. Brace yourself.
Have you ever become so caught up with everything happening in life that one day you just happen to notice how nice a day really is? Yesterday was that day for me. It was such a wonderful day. In the morning when I got out of my car to walk into the office, I realized how nice the sun felt. A very slight breeze kept the air cool enough that it seemed refreshing. I suppose I don't usually notice the weather because there are other things that crowd out leisurely thoughts of raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. However yesterday, it just seemed impossible for me to miss. In the afternoon, the temperature reached the high 60's and the occasional smallish fluffy cloud lazily floated across a vast blue backdrop. Also, I noticed that many trees still had blossoms. If you're willing to let your imagination go a little ways, they start to resemble the trees from the primary song, Popcorn Popping.
There were some other things that made yesterday nice too. At work, I received a $10 gift card to Zupas for some unknown reason. Also, I showed off my new iPad to some friends at work. They asked me to bring it in if I got one over the weekend. I'll have an upcoming blog entry dedicated to this. You won't want to miss it!
Just as I pulled into the garage from work, Sabrina flew open the door, bounding down a few stairs with her two blonde pony tails bouncing around. She's got such a bright, contagious smile that easily competes with the sun. She gave me a little hug around the neck before I could even get out of the car.
Anyway, Spring is here!

It is sad that we don't notice nice days more often. I'll have to make it a point to notice if tomorrow is nice. As for the iPad, I'm looking forward to seeing what you have to say about it.
That does sound like a very nice day. I have been trying to "stop and smell the roses" more myself, life is just a whirlwind if you don't =).
Thanks for the reminder for us to take in the small things in life, Julie Andrews. :-) You do have somme beautiful scenery in Utah.
It is beautiful! I love spring...and I love those cute pig tails too! Give her a hug for me!
