The Day before Spring Starts...

Okay, I have it, officially I have spring fever! I love winter...I love snow...but now I am ready for warmer weather and no snow and ice. I wanted one more big dump before spring...but I guess it isn't going to happen. We had so much snow in December...it is almost disappointing how little we got in typically the most wintry months of the year. So...today the sun is shining. If I leave my apartment I will get a view of Mt Spokane, covered in snow against blue skies and just an incredible view of the valley, mountains and North Idaho! I am thinking about spring cleaning...I started this sorting and organizing in January...now I feel like I want to kick it into high gear. I want to be done. But, I have so much more to go through. I joined Freecycle for the sole purpose of giving away my stuff...so far it has worked out okay. But...this takes a commitment of time and patience. I did Freecycle when I lived in Cincinnati. I met a very interesting group of people. The people I gave things to were literally from every walk of life! It was so cool to meet so many nice people...and of course I received emails from a lot of mad people...people who wanted to know why I didn't pick them or why I couldn't wait a week to get rid of something. It was amazing to me the amount of people who felt my freecycle stuff belonged to them. So..,I am hoping that my Spokane Freecycle experience is a better one. My sister is coming to visit this weekend. I am so excited. I have so many things I want to do with her...but on the other hand I want us to chill and take it easy! So...I hope we can get that balance and that the weather is AWESOME!!
