From September 2, 2013
I will miss you. Deep sigh. forlorn look. You barely got started after the month of rain. I'll miss the hazy, hot, and humid days. I'll miss working in the sun room and taking Popsicle breaks. I'll miss evenings in the sun room and how light it was outside even at 9 PM. I'll miss going outside without a jacket. I'll miss island time and the slower pace of days. Until next year.
Is it July, yet?
You have to lose to gain - crisp, frosty mornings, hot chocolate on a cold day, a roaring fire in the evenings, drawing the curtains and shutting out the dark. Each season has its joys.
ReplyDeleteGrumble, grumble
Deleteit's not winter yet-ha ha. Rain today, not snow. I'm like come about January, so I get it. Stay strong CJ.
ReplyDeleteTrying. Only 267 days until the Summer Solstic
DeleteWe need the winter if only to appreciate the summer! 😉
ReplyDeleteNah, some of us just appreciate Summer. I hope you are safe from Helene
DeleteI see your words are from 2013, but they still seem to apply to you. For me, I welcome fall every year because summer is too hot for me. But I think the climate in Massachusetts is a bit like the Scandinavian climate here in Europe? The bright, warm days are probably more desirable because they are not so hot and the winter is darker, longer... Make your sun picture as big as possible and hang it on the wall, it definitely has the ability to put anyone in a good mood!
ReplyDeleteAll the best

Summer seems so short. Winter lasts forever. First snow can happen at the end of next month. Not usual, but it can happen. Depressing.
DeleteHow is Summer already gone? Time flies when you're having fun. Speaking of fun, my husband took care of me greatly last month by getting me a fresh cabinet painting for our kitchen. Right in time for the fall/winter festivities. I loved your blog post, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteVery cool about updating your cabinets. Thanks for stopping by
DeleteI used to hate the coming of winter. But this summer was so over the top hot and dry that I'm thrilled to be heading into fall and look forward to winter. I know that's just sick and wrong;) Sandra sandracox.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteVery wrong. For your punishment, you must write 100 times. It's wrong to look forward to Winter
DeleteI am SO glad to be rid of the 110 plus days. I look forward to wearing clothes inside again and covering my body with a sheet at night. This summer was brutal and I have the extreme electric bills to prove it.
ReplyDeleteOur temps. weren't as high as yours, but very hot for this area. No complaints from me on that score, but air conditioners were running day and night so the electricity bill took a big hit, too.
