perspective

Isn't it funny how perspective changes things? I found myself disappointed, when I checked the weather this morning, to find that the forecast showed us not hitting the 70-degree mark for the next few days. (In my mind, 70 degrees is the point that I actually enjoy being outside).

The funny thing that crossed my mind though, is that back in the winter, the 60's seemed like bliss, compared to the 30-degree weather we were having at the time. How quickly I get spoiled by spring, and start to want summer! I guess rather than wishing away the beautiful days of spring by hoping for the hot summer days, I should learn to appreciate where I'm at! (For Todd, by the way, this is perfect weather; he considers anything above about 75 to be too hot; those are the days you'll find me lounging on the patio soaking up the rays.)

It's all about perspective...

I'm with ya. On the perspective thing and on the 70 degree mark. If I could have it sunny and 72 all spring long, I'd be a happy, happy Gang Mommy!

Well we know where Todd gets his preferred temperatures from. His Mom & Dad would agree with him. Sorry, Jess.
