It's supposed to be a beautiful couple of days here in North Carolina with temps reaching the mid-70s by tomorrow. Hooray! Spring is flirting with me and I don't mind one bit. I'll definitely be heading outdoors to enjoy as much of it as I can, though it's already mid-Monday and I find myself distracted …
