Flowers and shoots of green are trying their hardest to push their way through winter’s brown leaves.

Today was the first day in a long time that I didn’t wear a coat, hat or gloves! It felt good to be human again.

Spring is in the air and the sun has been out more days than it hasn’t this month. My vitamin D levels are getting back up to stable (although I can’t say the same for the color of my legs which seriously do resemble a ghost).

In other news from today: Germans don’t celebrate St Patrick’s day. Not a single person was in green and shamrocks were nowhere to be found. Good thing I refrained from pinching people.
