This is my favorite time of year. I don’t know where you live, but in Florida, Spring is simply amazing. It’s not too hot and not too cold.
Ahhhh…
I totally understand the term “Spring Cleaning.”
I think that the fresh breezes brings with them the desire to sweep away the clutter from Winter.
This afternoon, Rooster and I ran back to the grocery store and then headed home for an afternoon of chores. I pulled my dry clothes off of the line so he could hang his newely washed ones. While Rooster was busy, I decided to wash Pele and Aubie. A guy drove past, his dog riding shotgun, and he offered to let me bathe the dog.
Um, no thank you.
Next, I washed my car. I had made an interesting discovery yesterday. On a whim, I threw baking soda on the windshield and sprayed it with the Method cleaner you can buy at Target. Then, I sprinkled more baking soda on the wet windshield. I took a wet cloth, climbed a ladder (I have an SUV, and I’m short), and simply wiped away the dried bug guts that covered the glass.
Easy, peasie.
However, what I failed to realize was that I left a lot of baking soda on the front of the car. Hence, the need to wash the entire thing.
That done, I went inside, opened the windows, folded my clean clothes, and straightened up a bit, enjoying the fresh breezes blowing through.
Rooster swept the house.
Spring brings with it so much hope that you can’t help but be infected with a sense of joy. Fresh starts…inside the house, inside the heart.
I don’t know…I’m melancholy, I guess. Maybe it’s the affect of the crud I’ve been suffering with the last week and a half.
Regardless, my heart sings to God, who saw fit to make the seasons.
