3 days - already enjoying the sunshine and bird singing. I always yearned for spring through winter just to be unable to enjoy it because i was i that clouded circle of drinking and hangovers and depression.
I want to look back as an old man saying spring 2017 was when i started living my life for real.

Woman here, and I want to say the same. I'm afraid I'm already reaching the old age part, though. ;-)

An exponentially better way of life awaits!!!!!
