Happy Spring!

My first seasonal bucket list was about spring. You can read that here.

It started a bit of a trend for me to think of what I'm most looking forward to each season. I make monthly "look ahead" and "bucket" list goals in my bullet journal, but this is where I think seasonally.

So, in continuation of that, and hopefully not too much repetition, here is my new spring bucket list:

1. Clean up your yard from the rough winter.

2. Start planting things!

3. Spring cleaning! (I'm already thinking of a new cleaning playlist.) I start chipping away at things early, and eventually get "mostly" done.

4. Bring some of those first wildflowers inside. Around here, for me, it's lilacs. :) (Friendly reminder: Please make sure if you pick wildflowers, they are not native to the area. We want future generations to enjoy these first signs of the earth warming up, and many species that are indigenous to your area may indeed be endangered from being picked, even with the best intentions. If you're unsure, leave them!)

5. Dust off those planters and patio furniture.

6. Read outside.

7. Hot tub. (Who am I kidding? Every season is hot tub season!)

8. Write like crazy! (Spring = Easter break = a day or two of solid writing!)

9. Camp Nanowrimo (see #8)

10. Bake something springy. I like to bake, but really can't almost all of the summer, so I'll bake more in the spring to make up for it. This year I'm looking at lavender shortbread.

11. Dust off and tune up the bike. (Mine has a basket even!)

12. One word: sundress

13. Another word: sandals

14. Plan a spring event, whether that is a shower or party. I'm planning a book signing, actually.

15. Open the windows. The perfect day to do this is a big spring cleaning day.

16. You should probably clean those windows, too.

17. Drink wine (or tea or champagne or even water) under the stars. It's not freezing out - you may as well enjoy that!

18. Put away those boots and sweaters. I'll be pleased enough to see them in the fall, but right now, I've had enough. (Again, see #12 and #13!)

19. Stop cursing the weather man.

20. Create something.

 

What is your favourite season? I really love them all, but I'm seriously looking forward to spring now! Winter was a hard one, here (even more-so than usual). Bring on the sunshine!

What are you most looking forward to about spring?
