Thursday, February 17

Sombre & Blue

 It was 5 degrees today - that's practically tropical for Montreal in February. 
And I should have been happy, but I wasn't. 
It was just one of those days. 

But I forced myself out of my cloud of self-pitty and out of my apartment to go for a walk. It was the last thing that I felt like doing but I knew I had to do it. 
And as I walked through the dirty melting snow and rain and overcast skies, I saw beautiful sights, and I somehow felt better. Sometimes a change of scenery is really all it takes to cure a bad mood.

    Those hearts are really pretty. I cannot even imagine what 5 degrees feels like. Good for you for getting outside though!

    I absolutely love those hearts!!! To be honest I'd be a lil freaked out if I suddenly turned the corner and saw giant hearts but then the aww would follow. =) I hope tomorrow is a better day for you!! It's Friday!! =)

    I hear you... I hate February because I feel like it's a month long bad mood. I'll try to get in a walk tomorrow and see how it goes, connecting with nature does help though...

    Those immense hearts are amazing. Well worth the cold walk.

    Glad the walk helped lift your mood; getting outside always helps when I'm in a funk, too. Thanks for sharing these beautiful views with us - I especially like the one with those incredible icicles!
