The Journal of Alison McKenzie The windows are finally open!!!

It's a silly thing, really. My bedroom windows have been closed all winter, old and swollen shut from the moisture. There are two of them, one facing west and the other facing north. And when they are both open, the most refershing cross breeze awakens. Well, the temperature went above 80 degrees today, causing some of the moisture to evaporate. So, together, Miah and I opened the window with our combined strength, and now.....
Now there is the coolest breeze blowing through our bedroom, and I can REALLY hear the windchimes outside my window, and there is relief brushing aside the cobwebs of the winter. OMG. I LOVE the cool spring breeze.
I am currently Refreshed
I am listening to my windchimes

Like you, this Spring I managed to open them up. I love the fresh breezes. (yes, erk! the strength it takes!) Rustle of leaves, the actual rustle of leaves! What a thrill ;) |
