Winter Home Stretch

We were given a little taste of spring this week!  Okay, maybe more like a crumb of spring weather, but it was just what we needed.  Having a warm break like that can revitalize you.  You go outside, soak in the warm weather and sun, and shed a layer of clothing you’ve been wearing on your back for the last three months.  And if you were like any of us here, you rummaged through your drawer to find the most spring-like top you could find and your light, spring jeans. 

Believe it or not, it is not too early to think of spring.  Sure, the winter home stretch can feel never-ending, but this is the time to prepare!  

Every year about this time, we discuss taking inventory of your closets.  We encourage you to look at what you have and what you will need and want for the warmer months ahead.  This idea is usually prompted by unexpected warm days like we’ve had.  All of a sudden, spring seems much closer than before!  We question whether we are ready.  Do we have spring clothes?  Have we scheduled our spring break vacation?  Have we eaten healthily and exercised enough to look great in our spring clothes?  The good news is spring isn’t here yet and we do have some time to prepare before the warmer weather comes and stays.  Go back and look at your ‘healthy lifestyle’ new years resolution.  Maybe give it another shot.  Start visiting stores to look at spring styles and start building your wardrobe.  The days will start getting warmer and the sun will start shining longer.  You'll want to be prepared!
