It has been the coldest spring in Tennessee also. We had a hard freeze in May also. I'm so sick of it. It will go from 68 to 98 in just a day real soon. What a wonderfully written story. Please check "the coldest spring. We" you need a period after spring.
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

This article, A New Day, reflects what lots of folks feel about the seemingly endless winter and the continued need to stay penned up from all that is spring.

Thanks for the update, Laura. They blame it on the polar vortex that you are experiencing this cold. Two years ago in May, we had snow, too but today we've have unseasonably warm weather.
Please be sure to get enough vitamin D. I heard that the virus is worse among population low in vitamin D.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Laura, I feel for you. Snow in May!!! But I know, I just spoke to my brother in MA and they were covered in snow. I live in Spain, and today we were on 78-80 F. It's not fair, is it? I know you had a vortex coming down from the North Pole. But still!!! I loved your flash. Good luck. Ulla:)))

Comment from Susan X Smith
This was an interesting story which made me think of my Canadian relatives, all in Ontario. It is short and to the point. It meets the criteria of the writing prompt.

Comment from Bichon
This read like a little diary/journal entry that I enjoyed! You documented it all very well. That's cool that you have snow also, I guess it makes staying inside a little easier.
Just a note, the first few lines have multiple spaces between words and it made it a bit hard to read.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful review. For some reason the editor does that no matter what I do lol.
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
I liked this piece very much. Not a major part of your memoirs, just a slice of current life.
It's really amazing, everyone has strange weather of one sort or another since Covid-19. You have reverted to winter, whilst here in Europe we have forged on ahead to the height of summer.

Very well thank you. Never enough hours in a day (perhaps I am too easily distracted) but very unaffectedby the troubles. I presume you are too, as you are posting.
Comment from LisaMay
Thank you for this glimpse into your life. Weather has such an impact on how we feel, and with this pandemic our spirits are already low. I liked reading how you were excited to be working in your garden - growing things is a good activity for optimism.
