Season Talk

I was just noticing that it's been more relaxed here in the last couple of weeks. Not as rushed. Not as go-go-go. There has been time to just sit on the couch and read the paper or a book. Time to just browse internet and read blogs. Time to do housework and keep the house clean and neat. Time to just be.

Now that I've said it though, it seems that that's what I've always done anyways. Maybe the shift is in myself. Learning to take things as they come, and to not have this expectation to rush through tasks and pass life by.

I feel some breeze coming through the windows. Today was a scorcher. I'm realizing that I'm definitely not a summer person. I don't like being sticky. More than a couple times, I seriously contemplated running from the end of my bedroom which is on the 2nd floor of the house, jumping out the window and diving into my neighbor's big blue pool that's sitting invitingly in their backyard. Don't get me wrong; summer is great. I love the extended days, the feeling that you can accomplish everything in your day. I love the iced teas and sundaes and the fresh produce. But fall is still my favorite season. It always will be. So until then, I'll try to stay cool and not sweat it. :)
