Dear Mother Nature,
I am a humble New Englander who is currently wishing to celebrate the coming of Spring, which to many means to slight warming of temperature and no more wintery weather. Don't misunderstand me; I know you like to keep us on our toes, like the April Fool's Day Blizzard (which threw the MBTA for a loop once the snow melted and shut down 4 stations on the Green Line and others on the Red, Blue and Orange Lines, thus requiring busing while those stations were cleaned out) and early Springs that started the thawing then suddenly turned freezing cold for another month - btw that was (no sarcasm here) really fun, having the entire back yard a personal ice rink.
At any rate, the warming isn't happening, and this continuous wet snowy stuff isn't helping with my spring cleaning. There is this large, aging and too big for anywhere wardrobe I'd like to put out on the corner for someone to take; if you noticed last year it took about 10 minutes for that particle board shelf/dresser to go, and this is a better looking piece. Unfortunately, the on and off rain you have been giving us has thwarted this attempt, since I am not 100% sure it will be picked up within the 2-3 days grace period of dryness before it rains.
If you could, just for 5 days, have nothing but sunshine I would be most appreciative. Feel free to keep it as cold as you like, but the 5 sunshiney days would probably be more than enough time for someone to pick it up and take it into their home... or realize they no longer want it after picking it up, making it their problem.
Thank you very much.
