Even though the weather is not quite starting to feel like summer, the signs of it are popping up everywhere. The sound of lawn mowers running early on the weekend, children taking their bikes to school, the streetlights not coming on until after 9pm.

So if I win, I will buy myself the digital Brother sewing machine I’ve been wanting for awhile.
