Here are some things that I am tired of: looking at snow, being cold, slipping on ice, high heating bills, dreary days, looking at snow, getting the car stuck in snow, not being able to park because of snow & looking at snow! I’m going stir crazy and I am so ready for spring & warm weather and bright sunny days without snow. To keep myself from really going crazy, I am doing things to combat my winter fever until spring comes—buying myself pretty tulips, looking at spring accessories and planning a trip to Longwood Gardens and/or the Philadelphia Flower Show.
What about you? How are combating those winter blues?

Love that bright yellow! I am tired all all things snow, too. I’ve discovered that oranges are a wonderful antidote… so cheerful to look at, smell, and taste. Whoever decided citrus season should be in the winter was brilliant.
The tulips are gorgeous (also happen to be one of my favorite flowers)!!
I really think your idea of a floral bouquet is something I need to do as well. The bright colors alone lift my spirits.
LOVE tulips! Great photo.
Oooh I love those tulips . . . their my husbands favorite flower. I’m with you, I’m so fed up of all this snow and am so ready for spring. Today I made it up my very steep and icy road and headed to the mall for the first time in ages. It helped blow off the cabin fever a little. :0)
ooh, gorgeous tulips—they do bring the sunshine right in!
I don’t want to gloat, but we had our first, glorious spring day here today. Though it started out with can’t-see-across-the-street fog. But before today, I have been spending extra time crafting. My biggest accomplishment was making a DIY lightbox

I painted my bedroom yellow. And I do lots of yoga.
Oh I am with you 100%. A local florist had a post-Valentines day sale on so I loaded up on cut flowers. And I’m planning a trip to Logee’s – http://logees.com/ – it’s like a jungle inside a Victorian era greenhouse – delightful!
I desperately want to go to Longwood Gardens next time I take a trip to Philly.
OH I need to go buy some tulips! Those are so lovely. We are drinking lots of coffee and I’ve been crocheting, knitting, and stenciling t-shirts!
I completely agree! I’m just praying for spring to come. I just bought myself a dozen roses that were on clearnace from Valentines Day! $4.99 for a dozen beautidul red roses to brighten up my home and my day. I just don’t buy enough flowers….
