Spring starts tomorrow

And I am anything but Springy

I want to celebrate Spring with my kids by visiting a nature center where there is a pond with eggs we saw a few weeks back that should have become tadpoles.

I have been feeling so sick and tired and in pain and finally have much sadness today. I’m going to try my best to get out tomorrow and celebrate but if I feel this way I don’t know how I’ll manage to get out of bed even.

Are you guys celebrating tomorrow? I hope you have a happy day tomorrow welcoming Spring!

Not doing anything special but am a fan of spring. The weather is supposed to be in the 50s. Spring is a time of renewal and hope I can take a little bit of time each day to enjoy it despite my anxiety and depression. Hope your day goes better tomorrow then today

I read an article today about spring fever. Some people have trouble from the longer daylight in the evening.

I feel

Like I don’t deserve to feel happy

I don’t know why

I guess it’s the lies depression tells.

I’m worried about my dad and I miss my brother and mom

Spring is when my brother killed himself

I’m overwhelmed with grief

Be good to yourself, Spring isnt going anywhere soon.

I understand about your brother, same here except in Fall

Hi starlight, May tomorrow be a new day. One with brighter lights and lessened pain. Tomorrow I go back to work after quarantining because of covid. I look forward to going back to the normalness. Happy spring!

Happy Spring Dot!!! Hope you enjoy your day back at work. I’m trying to accept and let myself be however I need to be, so far so good.

Spring, I didn't know it was today :)

I hope you feel well enough to get out for a bit. I know you have so many things going on.

My heart is with you soup

Soup, a good thing happened to lift my spirits and allowed me to go inward. My 15 year old had a dream of my mom and she was so beautiful and happy telling him about how great the afterlife is.

I think I’ll take your advice and go for my usual walk - and it’s sunny 🌞

Thanks for always being around the corner.

That is so wonderful. A sign of peace ❤️ it's got to be very settling for all of you.

Take this message with you all day today. Your mom wanted you to know.

Enjoy your walk. 100% I'm hiding around every corner watching you:)

Sending you love

How are you doing?

SayNOtoPanic in reply to Starrlight

I’m alright! Some increased anxiety pending Aunt Pearls monthly visit. And I slept 2 hours last night my kiddo was up complaining from scratchy throat. But happy first day of Spring.

Starrlight in reply to SayNOtoPanic

Hope your kiddo is okay. And hope you get good sleep soon! That’s a lot to handle. Good luck with your aunt. ♥️

I love the first dandelions of spring. Remember using the stems to make bracelets and necklaces? Have you ever picked the young greens in early spring? They're delicious.

I've never been ambitious enough to make dandelion wine, but it sounds wonderful.

Spring in a bottle.

It's nature, dressing our lawns in glorious color, offering us free food just for bending down and grabbing it.

I remember the dandelion ‘clocks’. The number of puffs it took to disperse the seeds would tell you what time it was.

TBH, I hadn't noticed this year. Nothing seems to be going into my head.

I missed all the official things , Pancakes, Valentines, UK Mother's Day, and only just realised it's Spring Equinox.

I'm just wandering through, no direction this year. Oh Heck! Just realised its 2 weeks to Easter!

I'm not normally this dozy!

Cheers, Midori
