Spring Cleaning


After living in the desert for over three decades, I cherish rainy days. Today was the perfect day to take off from work as it was cloudy, cool, and foggy all day. By mid-afternoon, the clouds opened up and released the spring's first rain. Breathing deeply, I inhaled the smell of fresh rain and am looking forward to the one and a half-hour drive home.

Upon arriving at home, it dawned on me that rain was a curse and not a blessing, as I originally thought. The weed-free flower beds were now no longer weed-free.
