Spring is a love-and-hate romance for me.
While selling my Street Sense newspapers, I always end up standing under a tree and its sprouting pods on their branches fall on my hair. Then I have to wash my hair every day, so that my eyes aren’t red, itchy, and sometimes dry, sometimes watery. Over-the-counter medications don’t always work.
But I love spring because of the smell of cherry blossoms, beautiful orchards and other blooming flowers. The vegetables and fruits that are in season during spring make me happy.
