Spring is on its way

This has been a beautiful week. Right now I am in my office wearing short sleeves, yet by the end of the week it is suppose to be cool again. Next week is spring break, so I will have a little reprieve from Philosophy. I am envious of the people who can just pack up and head to the beach or mountains for spring break. I wish I could join them! Instead I have a full time job (which helps pay bills, etc) and that keeps me tied down to one location.

The pear trees are about to be in full bloom. Because there are so many in the area I have become intolerant to the fragrance they produce. Well, if every subdivision, store, and office park didn't use them in landscaping it wouldn't be so bad.

I am currently working on cleaning out my closets. I have taken several bags of shoes and clothes to the local thrift store. I found a bag of McDonald type happy meal toys, I need to take those to the local hospital along with books. Hopefully they will keep someone occupied in the waiting rooms..... one of the happy meal toys has lost a nose as Carsen, my brother's cat, has chewed the dog to bits. He had it for less than one week. Carsen is Mercedes' kitten from her 1st litter.
