You Know it's Spring When...

• The snow melts
• The snow melts because it is washed away by rain
• The view out your front window is mud and rocks and twigs and pinecones and toy shovels you thought you had lost last summer
• You are happy that the view out your window is mud and rocks and etc.
• The birds start waking you up at 4 am again
• You see woodpeckers on telephone poles during your walks
• Your kids can ride their bikes
• You start complaining about swatting flies
• Your house temperature is higher than what you set your furnace at, and you don't even have the oven on
• You can wear sandals without getting frostbite
• You feel like singing again
• Spiders hang out on the back of your see-through picture frame that just happens to be on top of your computer desk (guess what I'm looking at right now?)
• Spiders come out of the woodworks to torment you again
• Even the spiders can't make you sad about Spring
