You mean walking outside helps you remember things? I'd better do that  
more often... might find my car keys.

Too early for much to be blooming here--a few early cherry trees in  
the neighborhood (our two are still asleep), daffs, muscari,  
clemantis, tulips, pansys, forget-me-nots, camelia (next door).  
Apricot is finished. Both currants and gooseberries have buds; didn't  
check the blueberries but since they don't yet have leaves, probably  
not. Of greater interest than flowers has been the daily visits by Mr.  
& Mrs. Mallard--he's the pretty boy but she's definitely the boss. I  
suppose that once they've scoured our yard of bugs and grubs we won't  
see them again until next year.
