It’s here! It’s finally here! Spring has sprung!
Did you survive the winter? Are you enjoying the sunshine? I know I definitely am.
I also know that the beautiful weather has a magical way of cheering me up. All of a sudden I prefer to listen to happy, perky music and want to twirl in fields of daisies in bright, warm sunshine. Though I’m lacking the fields of flowers, I do have playlists full of energetic music to celebrate spring.
Here’s an example of my selection, which you can listen to here
