March Madness - seasons change (and so do I?)

Some simple thoughts on the time of year: It's March Madness. For some, it means college basketball tournaments (and figuring out your bracketology :). For others, the mad dash to "get ready" for Passover...whatever that means (as I learned a long time ago, the various holidays don't "come early" or "come late", it's rather that we're never quite prepared for them - and perhaps that's one of the strengths and gifts of holiday observance - that in the end, we have to be willing to give up a little control and roll with the flow of time). And, for all of us, this March Madness signifies the changing of season from winter toward spring: the return of warmer weather (especially beloved by those of us who have been blasted by ice and snow), fixing up the yard and outside of our homes, and even the idea of cleaning out/organizing the garage (okay - my spouse's daily prayer). From the NCAA tourney to Passover to the garage to our spirits - it's all about "spring cleaning"...
So - what's YOUR March Madness? How do you welcome spring? What's your favorite (or funniest) Passover memory? And more so, to what do you look forward most as the season changes? Would love to know...
