I haven't had a problem with the weather in Chicago and have found the warmer weather to be delightful.
Then I got here.
There are leaves or buds on most of the trees. Flowering trees are flowering. FLOWERS are in bloom. Birds are singing. The sun is out and warm but the air is cool enough that the warmth from the sun actually feels GOOD to me.
Even the mountains behind the house are green.
tv_elf has explain that this is "Because it's winter."
I'm just happy and content and it's LOVELY here.
