. . . possibly. I think because we've had such a brutal couple of cold snaps in the last two years, I'm still waiting for the fortnight of blizzards, snow and ice to hit, so a nice sunny warm weekend is slightly disorientating.
Went running today - it was horrible. Lovely day, but I was done in by the end of it and I'm supposed to be doing a 10k in two months. Kind of hoping it's related to the dieting - I will eat properly for at least a week prior to the race, because running without taking in enough food is not a good thing.
Meh.
Very domestic weekend - we finally got our new sideboard (woo, the excitement!) and I got a new piece of cookware! Oh, the rock and roll lifestyle I live. The cookware is a good old American-made cast iron skillet. Cast iron's not the most convenient, but I like it. We have a small cooker, and a big thick solid piece of iron doesn't half help keep the heat evenly distributed. It's hotspots everywhere with the modern stuff.
Like I said. . . rock and roll. . . . Still, nobody comes here for the entertainment. . . you come here for the llamas.

Yeah, it's probably a little early for spring. That's what often happened where I used to live -- we would have a couple of nice days and think winter was over, but there would usually be another big blizzard toward the end of March/beginning of April. Where I live now might be a different story, though, since it is quite a ways south from my former home.
