At this time of year, I'm always more than ready for fall. We've had several straight days of 100+ degree heat and I'm tired of it! I want cool mornings, warm days and crisp, cool nights...I want a fire in the firepit (which we can have way before a fire in the fireplace!), snuggly socks on my feet, the red, gold and oranges of fall foliage and the holidays looming ahead!
I am ready for sweater weather and football, for pumpkins and gourds, for pots of mums and Yankee Candles in yummy scents. I want school to start, and a routine to get established. I want to start planning my Thanksgiving table, and not sweat when I think about it! I want the flies and mosquitos to go away...but not the fireflies!
I want fall!! But, as we all know, God promised us that everything has a season and a purpose...I'm sure summer is no exception. Perhaps it's purpose is to make us grateful for fall!
Thankfully,
Cathy

Preach on Sister. You brought tears to my eyes and goosebumps to my arms just thinking of all those wonderful things.
I had just at Supper tonight told Doug how refreshing it felt to look at the new LLBean Catalog that I got today and see the Fall scenes and warm snuggly clothes! I can almost feel it! I'm so ready!
Ditto! It's a scorcher of a summer. I'm hoping we'll have some strong cooler seasons to balance things out. ;)
