Walsall Wonderland

The scent of Spring is in the air this weekend, all light and green and fresh, and it’s very exciting to me!

I’ve seen lots of cute little birds in their tidy little nests and many a green bud on the deciduous trees and plants, and with that smell in the air I know it’s going to be fully Spring in a short while, and I’m excited! I love the idea of my fiancé and I being able to get out and go do some awesome stuff this Summer. I’m not really a Summer person, but in our part of the country it doesn’t get overly hot, just a nice mild warmth that’s very nice. I love snow and Winter so very much, but it’s fun to see grass again for a while!

Of course, you know what else it means this Spring? Cleaning! Oh, hang on. I mean Cleaning!? Gah! Hehehehe Yeah, I’m not big on cleaning, because when I start I tend to get really into whatever I’m doing. If I clean the bathroom, I don’t stop until that room is so clean you could eat off of the floors, walls, and ceiling. I hate cleaning ceilings, too, as I’m so short. My arms get tired holding up the brush thingie.

I suggested to my fiancé that we go and do some really fun adventure activity type things this Summer. We decided we’d try a few, and said that we’d put forward two suggestions each, so I’ve suggested Zorbing – which is where you roll around in giant inflatable clear plastic balls – and I’m also thinking of suggesting some Archery too. My fiancé said he’s interested in Paintball – something he and I have wanted to do for the longest time – and Falconry, which would be so much fun I think!

All of those activities would be awesome! I’m also looking forward to, over the spring, getting much better with Spinning! Who knows, maybe by next winter I’ll be working with a wheel!

Now for a pattern, something spring inspired… How about the Spring Beret! Yep, that’s great! I am about to start work on a different beret, but this was a close choice for which I was going to work on!
