I caught myself today, while combing my hair, thinking about fall. Ummm hum...fall...as in autumn. But it's just barley spring you say...some spots out there still boasting snow. I do realize this, however I am still un-programing the "Texas" in me into "Washington."
By now in my previous home it would be on the cusp of summer...mid April it can easily reach into the 90's. Those days were really hard on this Washington/Alaska girl. I kept waiting for the blissful day to arrive that I would wake up one morning and have "adjusted" to my surrounds and think 95 degrees with 90% humidity felt "normal." This never happened for me. So as soon as the beautiful two weeks of spring were over...and summer had set in...I would start dreaming of November when fall would finally arrive and with it cooler days.
So here I am today...in the midst of spring...real spring with rain this morning, gusty wind and tulips....reminding my self to dream of summer and swimming pools and cool evenings when you need a jacket and my soon to be garden and flip flops and fire flies.
So hello spring....and pssst...summer...I'm dreaming of you too.
This is the second post I've read tonight that talked of Fall! Eeek!
ReplyDeleteThat's all so true! We have already had the AC on. We enjoyed the spring we had...all 2 weeks of it. ;)
