Cold almost gone

The cold has almost left us.  Today high in mid 20's.  Might rain on Friday.  This has been most difficult for us.  Next week temps seem to be back to normal.  The highs don't change much this month but the days get 40 minutes longer. I am looking forward to Spring.  Might do some planting this year.  I am considering adding flower boxes inside the fence in the front.  Could give the place an interesting look. I will probably get over it when the weather warms up but it is like the seed catalogs which will start to arrive soon.  The fun is in the planning not the planting.
