Spring Has Sprung!!!

I hope that this recent upturn in the temperature means that winter is over and spring is here.  It has been a very cold soccer season and I am ready to put the polar grade jacket away and enjoy some sunshine.  I will now list my favorite things about spring, in no particular order:

  • Spring Break - oh...you mean...your profession doesn't have a week off in the middle of March for no apparent reason?  Sounds like a great job.
  • Baseball - only 29 days, 2 hours, and 24 minutes until opening day!
  • Grill - any food tastes better when there are grill marks on it.  Even cereal.
  • Warmth - usually I love the cold and hate to see it go, but there has been WAY too much of it this year and I am ready for warmer days.
  • Dog Walks - I don't enjoy these near as much as the dog, but I do some of my best thinking while walking the dog.
  • Spring Football - to get outside and get popping in preparation for next season is a great way to finish a school year.
  • School Ending - oh...you mean...your profession doesn't give you the 3 warmest months of the year off for no apparent reason?  Sounds like a great job.
  • Less Clothing - men of size, like me, don't like wearing a bunch of clothes to keep warm.  It makes us look like a bad cross between a bear and Santa Claus.
  • Green - now that we have a guy mow our yard, I love it when all the foliage comes back to life.
  • Free Time - I love coaching both football and soccer, but it will be nice to have a month of no after school practices.  Hopefully soccer season goes on for a little while longer though.  PLAYOFFS BABY!!!
  • March Madness - Finally it is time for some college basketball games that matter.  Plus, Rudy and I at a Buffalo Wild Wings somewhere watching the 1st round games.
  • Driving With The Windows Down - made much better now that I have power windows.
  • Rain - my favorite type of weather.  A dark, overcast day makes coffee taste even better.
