The obligations have rushed forward with the season. The end of school is not months, but weeks away. Putting off the lawnmower tune-up no longer is an option. Tuning up that pale flab before the pool opens can t wait much longer either. Still, this particular year seems exceptional.
Spring is like having a toddler in the house.
There it is, all radiance and joy and glee. And there s you, trudging in its wake, cleaning up and handling chores and making yourself too tired and responsibility-laden to properly appreciate it. You ve got 31 days to be merry. Maybe less if we go straight into those long hot teen-agery days of summer. Get out there and play with this spring while you can.
