The snow won't stop

Yes, I am becoming a whiner! I just can't seem to shake my cold/cough/whatever it is. Looks like it will stretch into month 2!  I need some sunshine, bare dirt, green grass, bare feet. But the snow keeps coming. We had another blizzard that dropped 12 new inches of blinding white snow-but not to stop yet, because just a couple of days later 2 more fluffy inches fell. Now I am not going to complain about the blinding white of it all because that at least means that the sun was out. And it is beautiful-but it didn't need to get so cold again.
 Ahh..finally.. March is here-so why is it just 4 degrees? And windy? Now the roads are like ice slicks. And the wind will continue to howl, that is until it starts snowing again tomorrow night. Do I sometimes question choosing to live in the upper mid-west. There are times when I am ready to be outside that I do question it! But anyway, March will be the transition month- by the end of the month I should have seeds started for the veg garden, some herbs and I am sure a few "needed" perennials. Fun times are just around the corner.  By April I am hoping all of the snow will be gone and I can start to rake the yard and mark off hard scape areas I will be doing this year. I am going to have to relocate the asparagus patch as we are tentatively planning on adding on to the garage. Who thought moving to town was going to be easier? Not as much work he said? Always something to be done.
I am half way through with stocking # 2.  Just two squares left to quilt on my wall hanging and fingers are crossed that I get the last two bedrooms upstairs painted before the end of April. I am having color issues so kind of forgot about it for a couple of weeks and will get back on it next week.
