How much are you looking forward to spring?

And why? Truthfully I like the winter--I like the cool, dry weather (translation: good hair days! :)), I love snuggling on the couch during snow storms, I love all the holidays & days off. :p

But one thing I hate is the short days. I hate getting up in the dark to do cardio, I hate leaving work in the dark to lift weights.

I feel like I have so much more energy when the sun is up when my alarm goes off, & when it doesn't get dark til after I leave the gym.

I am definitely looking forward to more sunshine! :cool:
 
I'm still enjoying Winter, but soon, especially in the rainy season would like Spring to be here. Wait, that is our rainy season. But, when it is nice here in the Spring it really is exceptional. New things growing all around you...gardening, hummingbirds... can't get much better than that.

I am so ready for Spring!!! Things have been a little warmer this week (it's all going to go downhill next week though) and it's making me want to pull out my summer clothes! I can't wait to open my pool and put my patio furniture out, etc... I do love Fall, but I HATE, DESPISE, DETEST Winter. ;)
 
I would have to say I agree with you Laura. I do like snuggling on the couch, holidays & all that. Don't have hair issues myslef but know what you mean. I work out of my home so I don't have to go out in it like most. I can look out my window at the pretty snow & not worry about a commute.
I too HATE the shorter days. It gets dark & I'm ready for a bath & bed! :confused: Plus I feel like I have no energy or desire to do much most days. Like I'm in a frump.
These nice days we've been nlessed with have put a spring in my step! So I do welcome spring. the flowers, smells & that wonderful feeling at the end of a day working outside in the yard.
OH!!! & firing up the grill! Yummy!
 
I'm looking forward to spring so I can do long walks with the dog, get my motorcycle/scooter out and ride it and get my bicycle out and ride it and cuz I have seasonal depression and once the sun gets stronger I will feel upbeat and motivated. :)
 
I'm looking forward to spring for nice warm temperatures. Where I live it doesn't even get that cold, but I can't stand to have to where a coat. Also I enjoy the colors. The trees are so blah now with their grey bark and not leaves. The grass is brown. I did catch sight of my first blossoms on a tree on my way home the other day. It was nice to see that spring is close.

I've been counting the days until spring since November. I HATE winter. I hate the cold, the static, the dry skin, snow, shovelling, not being able to go for hikes in the woods with the dogs because the hills get icy and dangerous, the short days, wearing socks all the time, stepping in wet spots on my rug in said socks because someone had snow on their shoes...

I love the sun, the green grass and leaves, the smell of spring, the sound of motorcycles, seeing people outside enjoying themselves, mowing the lawn, the overpowering sound of peepers in my woods on early spring evenings. I love the first day I walk outside and notice the birds are back.

Summer is my favorite. I love walking outside in my bare feet, thunderstorms on hot nights, laying in my hammock with a glass of wine and listening to nothing but the windchimes and maybe a far off lawnmower. Driving with my windows down. Having my bedroom windows open at night. Seeing my cats sprawled out on the driveway getting sun on their bellies.

I love eating outside of Mighty Taco or Ted's Hot Dogs with my daughter. Sitting in a lawnchair while working on my laptop. Going to a wine festival at the Finger Lakes. I love building a bonfire in the backyard to burn the branches that fell over the winter and spending the whole day doing nothing but standing there putting more of them on and drinking cold beer with my friends.

I've just gone off into a complete daydream of summer....I can't WAIT!!!
 
I loathe spring and summer...always have. I never can relax during those times of year. Fall and Winter (especially Winter) are awesome. I have plenty of time to workout and embroider and snuggle. There are SO many chores during spring and summer it is exhausting! Yes, I am known as the ice queen to family. My house stays so cold that my dear BIL say to his children "hurry and close Aunt Melissa's front door so the cold doesn't get out!" Hilarious!
 
I could use a few more weeks of winter, to be quite honest. First off, I want a HUGE SNOW STORM...none of this 2 inches here, 3 inches there. Second, I use the winter time, when we're inside most of the time, to clean up and get my house in order because once OUTSIDE weather hits, my concentration turns to outdoor work and the inside of my house falls to shambles. Having said all that, my favorite time of the year is Spring!

Every time winter comes along my poor husband has to hear how we have to move South everyday! I CANNOT WAIT for Spring!! It is 62 here today and I am really having the fever...but, tomorrow is it going to be 30 degrees :(((((((
 
I love the warmer weather too. I loathe being cold. I don't mind being indoors, but when its cold and you have to get in a cold car--ugh!!

Today it is so beautiful, I think it is about 60 degrees and so sunny. I wish I could take the top off my jeep, but my hardcover is still on. I love to feel the warm sun on my face and skin!!

Chrissy I am with you bring on the WARM weather.... I can't wait...:p I had to make calls in NYC today and it was sooooooo nice to walk around with out freezing my butt off! LOL

OMG the weather is fabulous today! Def. giving me an itch for the spring wardrobe. That's the other reason I love spring/summer more than winter. Can't wait to exchange the boots & turtlenecks for sundresses & sandals! :)
 
I HATE WINTER. HATE, LOATH, DESPISE WINTER. I want the sun, longer days, the birds chiping, my vegtable and flower garden, long walks (not on a treadmill), sandles, bike rides, breakfast on the deck, open window while sleeping, driving with the car window down, driving to the country or to the lake, light clothing, ice cream and squishees, even the little spiders that make their home on my window ledge and watch me workout.

I hate being surround by cold, white, death. I want so see life again.

Gayle, ditto! I would love a huge snow strom (we love to snowmobile) all my drawers and cabinets are in order, and come spring, my house looks better outside than in. Longer days, 4-wheeler rides, horse rides, no more feeding cows, I love mowing the lawn, cookouts, the list could go on... I like winter, but love spring/summer:)
 
ME!!! Because once it's spring, I'll be on my way to a 2 week vacation to New Zealand where I get to see the leaves change to its fall colors. Hmmm...so, is that I can't wait for the spring or the fall? Hmmmm....
 
we need rain

Because last week we already had a grass fire. So, we need some more of the rainy stuff. However, I prefer it dry and a little warmer because the old wogging is better for my butt/thigh area than taebo. The old hi/lo tapes just don't cut it. And thats a bummer cause I still need to lose about 48 pounds. So, bring on the warmth please!
