An Appropriate Thought for Spring

I got an e-mail from my friend Jimmy this morning, in which he used a phrase that totally captured my imagination. Here is the relevant excerpt:

...it looks like we won't be moving west, at least for the time being. If something big pops up for one of us, we would definitely consider it. For now we are going to try to "bloom where we're planted", as Shayr says.

I can just tell: that phrase is going to be stuck in my head all day, and probably longer. It makes me think of the things Al and I are doing to make our current home more livable, such as rearranging the furniture and planting flowers in the courtyard (the activity we've planned for this weekend). I'm sure there's more we could be doing, and all of it would help to stave off Weekend Depression.

Let's get blooming!
