Since today is the first day of Spring, here is thirteen things I love and hate about Spring:

1. Love: Flowers. Who doesn’t love flowers?
2. Hate: Flowers. I’d like to know who came up with the idea that flowers should make you sneeze? I ache for poor Jack this time of year.
3. Love: The grass growing again. There’s nothing like a fresh green lawn.
4. Hate: Damn grass grows too fast and has to be mowed once a week. And again, who’s bright idea was it to make grass give people hay fever??
5. Love: Cherry blossoms blooming. What’s not to love about pretty pink trees?
6. Hate: Damn cherry blossom flower petals get everywhere!
7. Love: The kids can play outside again! Sometimes without a coat.
8. Hate: Yard work
9. Love: I can exercise outside! Go for walks, etc. Bahahaha. Like I get exercise?? If only I had that elliptical I’ve been wanting. (Only if Jack miraculously finds room in the garage…)
10. Love: Spring cleaning! I love my house to be sparkly and shiny.
11. Hate: Spring cleaning. I’m a clean freak in a lazy person’s body.
12. Love: Portland Saturday Market opens - I vow to get there more often this year.
13. Hate: The dog hair *everywhere* that my dogs shed. UGH! I should save it and knit a sweater. Seriously.
