I know I'm not the only one that finds the recent weather patterns strange - although there really is no "pattern" for the snow, extreme wind, thunderstorms, and heat that Chicago has been experiencing recently. I do love snow, but at some point, it gets annoying when I don't know whether I should wear shorts or a winter jacket; and in April of all months! Now is the time it should be raining pleasantly, letting last year's vibrant flowers pop up, with little critters hopping about our neighborhoods. Cheesy? Yes. But instead, we have to run around covering up the furniture on our porches from the snow flurries severe rain downpours, or constantly swatting at persistent flies in the humidity. I believe this goes hand in hand with Earth Day (April 22), and the cruel treatment of our helpless planet. Every day, we add just a bit more poison into the air, and kill the natural life a smidgen more. The good news is that people are becoming increasingly more aware of what we are doing to the earth, and to ourselves, by overindulgence in luxury cars and other electrical amenities.
