How Spring Cleaning Begins
It's been raining a lot. The grass is long and dandelions are populating the yard. The hosta, tulips, herbs and perennials are pushing up and out through the yet un-raked blankets of mulch in the garden. Jack has at least two entire coats of fur on his dogbody. Expectation is in the air!
The corners are filled with dust, animal hair and cobwebs, there are stacks of mail, New Yorkers, newspapers and books, cords and empty boxes, forgotten CDRs with no titles, vacuum cleaner parts, tools, boots, crust and stains on tables, abandoned art projects.
I can tell something big is about to happen!!

oh mother... do i ever sympathize with these feelings and collections you're experiencing... my house is cluttered with cig butts, newspaper after newspaper, ants, dirty dishes, batteries, canvases, etc. i love you.
"hold me BACK!! HOLD ME BACK!!!" [is what i imagine being yelled in the above photos as you prepare to let loose on cobwebs, etc.]
ahhh... you all know what i'm talkin' about. i feel vindicated.
You've struck a chord in Golden Valley. My solution: strike a match.
