Oh, the sun came out this morning! (Being sung instead of said!) after a couple of hours of thick fog again, the sun did, indeed, pop out to brighten the day and warm the place to the mid 80s. It felt like spring...no summer.
It was not an easy task for old Mr. Sun, however, as the fog was thicker than yesterday! Several times, I caught sight of a big, round ball of white trying to push through the fog only to see it be covered over again. Then, along about 10am, poof! Fog gone...sun out...sky blue...and we were busy as bees. There is ever so much to do to get the place ready for spring.
To me, the sun appeared to be a giant ball of ice or maybe one of the old naphthalene mothballs that Mom used in the steamer trunks that held our winter clothes during summer. Those things smelled terrible! I actually hated wearing anything that had been stored there unless it had been washed several times. While the mothballs were a not-so-pleasant memory, seeing the sunshine was just what we needed! Nothing like it to chase away any winter blues!
