I've Got Nada

Spring!, a photo by gummycandy on Flickr.

I've been distracted lately. New job, changes, lack of DIY inspiration. Instead, I offer a humble instagram photo of how lovely our house looks in spring. This lushness makes a cold, dreary winter worth it.

Spring!

What a difference a week makes! Our azaleas just burst out in color this weekend due to the 80+ degree temps.

I love living in an older neighborhood filled with mature landscaping and tall trees. With the afternoon light filtering through the leaves, it's really a gorgeous place to be in the spring.

Glory of the South

This is when our little split level starts to look almost charming - spring! Our azaleas are blooming, the lawn is green, the trees are leafed. And everything's covered in a thick layer of greenish/yellow pollen. Ah, lovely. As an allergy-prone person, I'm suprisingly NOT having a total histamine freak-out. Sure, a few sneezes here are there but I haven't had to hit up the Zyrtec at all.

This tree in my neighbor's yard is just so. pretty.

How a week changes things. Our azaleas are really blooming now and our tree is looking nice as well. Also, a mowed lawn does wonders!
