Spring is So Close, I Can Smell it

I actually left my apartment without a jacket or coat this morning. I was a little apprehensive that I would be freezing since I am also wearing a skirt but there was no shock of cold air as I walked out the door. Lovely.

Sitting at my desk, the front door is open and the smell of freshly cut grass is drifting in and creating oodles of happiness. It makes me wonder if they make a candle with the fresh cut grass scent. I would definitely rank that very high up on my list of favorite smells and if they could capture the smell well, I would buy it and me thinks other people would as well.

I have also noticed that it is getting lighter earlier in the morning, it is no longer pitch black when I wake up but the sky is a mauvy/gray, and the sun is staying out later too. Longer days make me happier and also more productive. Cold weather and dark days depress me, but I always am an overall happier person in the warmer months. I am also even more excited about my online shopping spree that should arrive this week since I purchased all warm weather clothes, woo hoo!

I could write an enormous list of why I love warm weather but I will leave it to those items I mentioned above. The giddyness should come through clearly enough:)

Update: In fact they do make candles with a fresh cut grass scent. Everything Smells.Com is the name of the website and they have some other very odd scents like Avacado (do avacados even smell??), Olive oil (ditto previous comment), Cannibus (um, sort of odd usually you are trying to mask that smell) and a lot of other normal scents.

You people. Don't you know it'll soon be unbearably hot?

Does it really smell like grass(the lawn not the cannibus)??

Bring on the heat. Sure it isnt ideal, but I would rather it be hot than cold. Besides, on March 9th the time will change and the days will be longer and then fruits and vegetables will be in season...these are all good things!
