It's been a rough week... actually rough is very much an understatement. I'm trying to be optimistic that next week will be better and that things will "return to normal" if you know what I mean. From being overwhelmed with work and running the sound board every day this week (which although it was a lot of fun, got very tiring after the second day), to trying to deal with the death of a classmate's father... it hasn't been enjoyable.

I know what you mean re work. I have to tell myself to manage one task at a time. It's easy to become overwhelmed when you have a lot on. I'm even thinking right now about what I have to do tomorrow and keep telling myself to relax and deal with tomorrow when it comes. I love my job but it I can become obsessive about it sometimes. Hope your week returns to some sort of "normal" next week.

I always start my work week on a Sunday evening. I have about a week and a half’s work to do most weeks. But sometimes it’s more.

Out and loving Nature, and Ocean, as spring wakes up, as much as I can.
Comes fast when it starts. Wonderful!

While I love summer, I think that spring is my favourite season.

I thrill to the awakening of the year, the lengthening days, the better quality of the brighter light, the colour, daffodils, the restoration of - and re-awakening of - life to the natural world.

Well, not exactly my fav season just yet. It usually have a few rounds of disappointment, and some snow relapses before spring are born for real. It's tiresome.

Lots of snow tonight 🌨️❄️☃️🥶

Agreed, very tiresome.

In fact, not just tiresome, but irksome, too.

You expect snow (and ice, and sleet, and frost) - even if you detest it (as I do) - in winter, but, when the calendar clocks into spring, deep down, you think, you hope, you believe, that you have left all of that dismal, dark, dreary, depressing, stuff behind until next winter.

Thus, when winter and its accompanying unwelcome delights choose to linger, I, for one, am.....not just disappointed, but displeased.
Glad the overnight predictions of snow came to nothing.
Amen to that.

A profound and heartfelt amen to that.

At least, the daytime temperatures are quite lovely. Cold, but brisk and healthy.

Okay, today is wonderful; daffodils are gloriously in bloom, greeting the spring in their raiment of yellow and gold, while the bright quality of the available light is a benediction, a blessing of pure joy, as that great golden globe shines from a cerulean sky.

Yea it's backwards here in PA. Was mild through Feb. Now it snowed twice in March. Last night was nothing but the one before was ice :( There was actually one in Feb too but was mostly nothing also.

It did actually snow today when I was at work. But for less than 5 minutes. It was sunny at the time and nothing settled on the wet ground.

Thankfully, by March, even when sunny, and a wind from the North, temperatures are well above freezing during the day, and the day itself is both longer, and warmer than was the case during winter.
 
Ah. Up here we prefer it to stay below freezing, otherwise the roads become crummy and dangerous when it goes back to below freezing.
Yea this why PA stinks. We get the garbage mixes. I'd rather it be colder where only snow would come. As long as it doesn't go past 6"-1', I can deal with pure snow.

My sympathies. I’d rather have it slightly too cold than in the 40’s. No fun if you live in a world without AC.

I think (please correct me if I am wrong) that @compwiz1202 was referring to temperatures measured in Fahrenheit, and not Celsius.

Temperatures above 40 F are okay; temperatures above 40C can become uncomfortable, very uncomfortable, very fast, especially if humid, as well.
