Haiku 2022 – Day 008

sub-zero wind-chill the next day 50 degrees midwestern winter
The transition between winter and spring sure is an adventure (read: pain in the ass)! The lurch out of winter here in the Midwest is not typically gentle. It isn’t unheard of to bounce between lows and highs that differ by 40°-50°F. So, we dress in layers, layers, layers!
For me, it’s also the time of misplaced car keys, chapsticks, masks, and sunglasses as winter coats are chucked in the back seat, and the “right” place to store and retrieve these items is replaced with “the handiest place” – purse, pants or jacket pocket, sweater pockets, cupholder in the car…you name it! Here’s to longer days ahead!
