As I was driving home earlier this afternoon, I was taken with a feeling of fall being just around the corner. I had a fall-ish feeling about me. The world about me, the same world I see everyday, was tinged with a fall-ish sort of glow. Well, it was for me. No, there are no trees changing colors yet. It is still hot here and will be for awhile likely. But, for whatever reason, I had a delicious sense of fall-ishness. I love fall, autumn if you will. I actually do prefer the term autumn, but I'm in such a habit saying fall, maybe perhaps because that is the term most people around here use. Nevertheless, no matter what you call it, I like it! Yes, indeed. Autumn is my season, a time when I feel my creative juices flowing. I don't necessarily make use of those creative juices, but they sure do get to flowing. I anticipate the holidays--fall festivals, Thanksgiving, Little Munchkin's birthday the first week of December, and, of course Christmas.
Although autumn may be officially a few weeks away, I'm totally ready for it--the brisk mornings, the earthy colors, the pumpkins and scarecrows and sweaters. I would say football, too, but I don't watch football.
Come on, Autumn, bring it all on! And make it snappy. I'm tired of sweltering.
