We have had our first taste of spring and the
nighmare returns.
Everyone keeps saying what a wonderful time of
year spring is and in some aspects it is. The snow is
gone, the flowers start to bloom, birds are returning.

Show me more of your love
You say you love me but sometimes you don't
show it. In the beginning, you couldn't do enough for
me. Now, you seem to take me for granted... some
days I even wonder if I mean anything at all to you.
Maybe when I'm gone, you'll appreciate me and
all the things I do for you. I'm responsible for get-
ting food on your table, for your clean shirt, for the
welfare of your children - a thousand and one things
Canadian
you want and need.
Why, if it weren't for me you wouldn't even
have a car. I've kept quiet and waited to see how
long it would take you to realize how much you real-
ly need me.
Cherish me - take care of me and I'll continue to
take good care of you. Who am I? I am your job....

Another thing about spring, is that everything is so
drab and dreary at first. Just after the snow leaves the
grass is brown, there is mud everywhere and the trees
look like lifeless skeletons. It i§ hard to envision this as
a romantic time of year, unless you're the bride of
Dracula. Sure, things get better, but its those first few
weeks that are hard to take.
And then therearethe birds that sing outside your
window in the morning. I think that Is great during the
summer, but it takes me a while getting usedto in the
spring. The worst part Is coming home early Sunday
morning from a really good party and just getting to
sleep e friends when our fair -feathered ri decide it's time
to awaken the world with a beautiful serenade. This is
great, but 5:30 in the morning? Ah, come on guys, give
me a break!
Once the first few weeks are over and normal out-
door activities can begin again, the dread of the
swamp in the front yard, the kids coming home
covered in mud and the fear of one more winter storm
are quickly forgotten. Then spring quickly passes to
summer and then to fall. Then the gr=eat Canadian
winter begins and we look forward to spring, not
remembering the horrors until they are upon us.
How quickly we forget.
