Spring Has Sprung!


Yes! Spring is finally here in Brisbane and I love it! Well, most of it... with the exception of the hay fever which starts early in the morning and finishes when I drop off to sleep late at night, I love Spring here Brisbane. Yeah, the blossoms on the trees get to me in a really horrible way; and it feels as thought I'm coming down with a cold when in reality I'm not. But honestly, I do love this time of year. The nights are still nice and cool; yet the days are a warm enough to get out into the yard and to attack the much-neglected garden; and boy! Does it need the attention!
I also get into the ol' Spring Cleaning Mode because - with my birthday coming up in the next few weeks - I do out my wardrobe to call in the new season with a big Vinnie's shop so I have some clothes to go out in (and coin purses to show off too!).
Yeah, Spring is the time when I get in and have a bit of fun with Halloween, bringing dormant plants back to life, painting, music and socialising. It's when I see Brisbane
City and Logan City at their best.
It's not as thought Winter is a horrible thing here; it's just that the weather turns so darn cold and nothing really does anything. So, I have more fun reading or doing indoor stuff than getting out and about (as we all do).

So, let's all welcome this time of year and go for a walk to see all the plants in bloom.
Whether you've got plants that are losing their leaves for Autumn or they're just starting to open up again and bring colour back into your lives, any season is as beautiful as the next. So, get out there and enjoy it; no matter what the weather.
