Why I Am Excited For Spring!


Spring is not too far away, and I cannot wait. It will be such a relief when there will be no more cold weather. We will be having spring temperatures here in Illinois these next couple of days. I am very excited about that, so I figured I would share why I am so excited about spring.

Warmer Weather
1.      I mean what is there not to love about warmer weather? You can be outside more instead of being stuck inside. 

Longer Days
2.      I never like it when it is dark by 5:30. It makes me tired and feel like I should be in bed already. Longer days mean more time to enjoy the sun and be outside. 

Outside Workout
3.      I would pick running in the park or my neighborhood any day over running on the treadmill. I love starting my day off with a run outside. It puts me in a good mood for the rest of the day. Plus I also can bike on the local bike path.

Flowers
4.      I love seeing all the beautiful flowers in people’s yards. Plus they also smell absolutely lovely. It is nice to see lots of color after many months of winter.

Wardrobe Change
5.      Since I have not worn my spring and summer clothes in so long, it almost feels like I am wearing new clothing. I also then have an excuse to go shopping to buy spring clothing.

Just Being Outside
6.      I just love to be outside. It does not matter what I am doing. I can blog and do my homework outside. That sure beats being inside doing it. 

No Cold Cars
7.      I do not know why, but it feels like an entirety until my car warms up in the winter.  I know it is only a few minutes, but it is long enough that I really look forward to not having to deal with it in the spring. 

Local Races
8.      The start of spring means the start of running races! Only 4 weeks until my first half marathon. 

Lighter Color Nail Polish
9.      I am so ready to start wearing fun pinks on my nails instead of darker colors for winter. 

There Is Just No Season Like It
1.  It is just a time when everything becomes beautiful again. Green grass, leaves on the trees, birds making nests, and just that springtime smell you cannot describe.

I can’t wait for Spring!

I love Spring tooooo!
I'm in Italy, but the feeling is just the same as yours, I can add to your super nice list the amazing smell of the laundry finally dried in the sunshine!!!

When I wake up and I see my apricot tree outside the window full of his amazing white little flowers, I know that the Winter is gone ^_^
