We have had a very mild summer. Most of us have felt we have been been left out of summer since we have had cool days and sometimes drizzle. Remember the day we had the "Next Step" at our college. We chose to have it in August because August hardly ever has rain. Sunshine causes us to put all "To Do Lists" aside and go do something... ANYTHING while it is sunny outside. We don't go to the movies, we don't work in the house... we get out of the house and into the sun! It makes us live in the moment and not take the sunshine for granted.
After all, we haven't had a summer in a usual way this year AND we will see lots of rain when fall and winter arrive. I almost hate to even mention fall and winter. It isn't like it is in California where there is just a slight change in temperatures. Here there are seasons and one can hear the ticking of the summer clock getting closer to when it will chime in fall. I don't mind September. And October is beautiful here with the changing colors in the trees. Some trees look like they are lit up with color. But when November, December, and January arrive, I will be complaining about how dark it is and the possiblity of snow again. By the time February ends, I'll be ready to jump on a plane to go visit my family in Southern California. I am just giving you a "heads up". But for now, I am going to enjoy the lazy days of summer while they are here.
