Last month we celebrated the official beginning of Spring, but it appears that all around the country Mother Nature wasn\u2019t necessarily in agreement. A quick trip to a chilly San Francisco had me asking the question echoed in many snow covered states, \u201cIsn\u2019t it supposed to be spring?\u201d That\u2019s when it hit me.<\/p>\n

Being the \u201cdomestically challenged<\/em>\u201d individual that I am, I have never really liked this term. I can, however, appreciate the meaning; the opportunity to turn something that \u201cis<\/strong>\u201d into what you \u201cwant it to be<\/strong>\u201d- a new beginning, a rebirth, an opportunity for change.<\/strong><\/p>\n
