The end of winter is close at hand, yet the winter weather has held on steadfastly for many areas around the world, despite the February message of an early spring from the local groundhog. Spring, seemingly, has been very slow in arriving. However, in a couple of weeks, the season of spring (fall for the southern hemisphere) will be here soon and winter will be forced to the side, at least based on time.
This winter season has been a particularly rough one with the difficult weather conditions in many areas that are not accustomed to the harsh weather patterns. For some of us, the colder than normal temps have taken their toll on our states of mind. Spring fever is looming. March is a good month for celebration to help stave off the late winter depression. Next week is Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday), daylight saving time begins on March 13 and then another fun day of celebration, St. Patrick's Day on March 17. These "Spring is almost here" events can all help to break up the doldrums of the last remnants of winter as we ring in the arrival of spring.
