Pressure and stress at work has acted like a shield between me and the spring. I think that the rainy gray skies for a solid week also added to the general feeling of depression and sadness. When the sun came out this evening, the mood lifted and I felt that old spring happiness.
My little girl has only three more days left of school and then she's out for good - except for college.
I'm going to miss seeing her every day in the halls.
