Guess what? I'm not cranky!
Well, not right this second. I was earlier today, and I'll probably get there again before bedtime, but right now I'm fine and dandy. And that's because, frozen though we've been, I'm seeing signs of actual springtime.
(Side note: yes, fellow Floridians, I have heard that this is the coldest winter in many many years and many of you are just as surprised as I am, but this is my blog so the only complaints that matter are mine. Plus we had to go buy long pants, so I'm all indignant about that.)
Anyway, in addition to my lovely live oak tree in the front yard, we have this fabulous thing:
It started blooming about two or three weeks ago, which bodes well for some nice warm weather to come along soon. I think it might be a crepe myrtle - if anyone wants to chime in and confirm it, or give me other suggestions, I'd be grateful.
And it's covered in gorgeous blossoms, though sadly no fragrance.
Whatever it is, it's gorgeous, and it's right outside my front door.
