It seems that Spring has finally decided to truly make an appearance - the air was warm, the sun was shining, and the local farms were stinking. Yes, here in Central PA, the start of Spring brings the desire to open windows coupled with the realization that it stinks outside. I realize that I am a Jersey Girl and while that means I am from "The Garden State", I am here to tell you that I am much more accustomed to strip malls, boardwalks, ocean views, and traffic but surely not farms, cows, and fertilizer smells. So, in the almost 9 years that we have lived here, this is something I have never gotten used to and never will. Add to that the fact that my allergies have been out of control and the fact that the chemical smell of the fertilizer makes my allergies even worse and I was not a happy camper earlier today. I wanted to open my windows. By tonight, the smell had faded (or my nose was a little stuffed again..not sure which) and I was finally able to have open windows.
