First Sunshine

We got back from Hawaii and LA late Monday night, and now, five days later, we are finally getting a glimpse of late day sunshine.  It snowed heavily for two days, it rained, and it was overcast and spitting all week since our return.
Bird of Paradise in L. A.
But it's okay.  We have both been so laid up with nasty colds, that it didn't matter.  We sleep, do laundry, and wait for the week to pass.  The sun came out late this afternoon.

March is here.  I expected to return from our travels tan and energized and ready to finish projects (the curved wooded bridge for the dry creekbed!) and start seeds and putter outside even if it's still to cold to garden.

But.

Icky weather, bad cold, no oomph.

I'll get there, just not yet.

(PS, Hawaii was wonderful and our weekend with Tom was a treat!!!)
