Write Every Day - April Day #9

[auroracloud]

Spring is really getting along now - I saw a finch today, sitting in a tree and singing with all its might.

According to Finnish folk wisdom, we are half a month from summer now. I think Finnish folk wisdom meant something else than we do when it said summer, though.

Today's Writing

Most of my free time in the evening sort of got away with me, but I wrote 127 words on the novel, at least.

[ysilme]

We rarely have a proper spring any more since quite some years, and it's not unusual for temperatures suddenly rising from still-winter to nearly-summer within a week. We've had years where the highest temperatures already happened mid-May. I hate it, for while I manage to adapt eventually to hotter temperatures (though not necessarily well), the first one or two weeks is always rather uncomfortable when it's getting over 20°C outside. Still, if it kept at that for all of summer I'd count myself lucky, for summers became so much hotter in the last years as well. Last summer was pure bliss - we managed to escape the worst of the heat while traveling through Lapland and Finmark. *g*
