Second, start your garden indoors. The entryway is the perfect place to put your plants.
Third, do your spring cleaning anyway. (I washed every curtain and inside window today. Someday, when the temp is higher than in the 40's, I'll get the outside ones.)

This is a cardigan I bought second-hand. It had some small stains that wouldn't come out, so I covered them with embellishments. (yay, ribbon!)
This is my second wool sweater dyed with kool-aid. I fixed the placket on the first kool-aid sweater this weekend, too (it remained white when the sweater became orangey-peach, so I replaced it with orange). This one was 1 packet of pink lemonade and 1 packet of black cherry. I like the ombre effect. (and if it stays cool, I will be able to wear it, and the wool pants that I turned into wool shorts!)
This is a sweater I tried to dye with fabric dye. It didn't dye evenly, so I used fabric paint to add designs and some splatters, making the unevenness look more intentional.
Another sweater from the same dye experiment. It was pretty even, but had some spots of darker color, like splatters. I left those and added the flowers on the front where it had a bit of uneven color.
Fifth, you can do what Callie does, and nap away the gloomy days.
I'm hoping that the weather that cannot be named has gotten everything out of its system this weekend. Sunshine and 60's by mid-week is in the forecast. I'm going to believe that the weather people will get it right.
