F is for Fantasy

Yes, I currently am writing a dark fantasy series (the Shadow Journey series, writing it as Jo Allen Ash), but that’s not what this post is about. It’s about, well, SPRING and a fulfillment of the next letter in my challenge. The challenge I stood up and declared I would meet. I thought I’d have it finished in March. Fat chance, apparently. I’m only on the letter “F” for crying out loud.

Has anyone looked out the window around here, checked the temperature gauge, scanned the weather forecast? Right now, it’s 46 degrees and raining, if not exactly buckets, at least some pretty big containers. We are supposed to have multiple inches of rain over this upcoming week. I’m not complaining about that. Water is a commodity that can run to short supply in a dry summer, so if the reservoirs, etc., fill up now, that would be great. However, snow is also in the forecast for this week. Not much, but with the temps dropping into the 30s at night, I’m not really sure what I should be doing with my flower seeds. I put off sowing them because of recent frost.

I’m so confused.

At least my daffodils finally decided to bloom so even on a rainy day, they bring sunshine inside and out. And truly, I’m not complaining. There are too many other things going on in this world to let something like a little rain get in my way. Happy Monday, folks! Rainy days and Mondays…
