...came in like a lion...

March came in "like a lion"...















Is she leaving us "like a lamb"?  Not necessarily - it is a high of 33 degrees today and spitting snow.  Still I am hearing the robins ...seeing the crocus blooming and finding inspiration. 

5X7 watercolors

April Fool's arrives tomorrow.   Hope she fools us with a bit of warmer weather.

As the Apostle Paul says "...I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances."  Phil. 4:11b (NIV)  

Have a wonderful week.

Hugs Debbie

  1. That's good advice from Paul, we really should try to be content with our circumstances. It's a lesson I need to learn. I am often complaining about things I cannot change (like the weather when it gets too hot). Your paintings are really beautiful. Have a wonderful and blessed week.

  3. A wise man, Paul...
    But 33 degrees? Still, even the robins are optimistic.
    And there is such optimism and beauty in your paintings. Spring is here despite a temporary setback in weather.
    Have a lovely week, Debbie!

  5. The forecast is for cooler weather tomorrow. Just when it was starting to feel nice! Love the crocuses...they have just started coming up here. I will be traveling and will miss most of the colors of spring...I guess I will adjust. I'm hoping to keep the blog going as long as it keeps letting me post. Will visit from Venice when I can. Ciao!

  7. Oh I love your paintings, Debbie! I've had snow in the past on my birthday in April, so everything is possible. But spring is clearly on the way! Have a nice week!

  12. It is a good thing that you are resilient. That load of snow may have dampened my spirits. Your watercolors are fabulous. Hang in there. Warmer weather is on the way. Cheers.

  16. Hard to tell what days will bring warm and sun or rain or cold and sleet still here in April! But I hope it inspires you to paint (love the 5 x 7 paintings you shared with us!!)
