Fall is Here
For some reason, I was surprised when I glanced at my agenda yesterday. On the page at the top of September 23, in small letters, was written First Day of Fall.
Oh.
Not sure when that happened. I guess those crisp early mornings were a good cue.
I wasn’t prepared to say goodbye to this beauty…green grass, warm summer evenings, sundresses, no jackets….
I was ready to frantically tape the leaves back on the trees and rip those long scarves off those eager freshmen as they walked past my house.
Then I sipped at melting whipped cream, topped with grains of grey salt on hot mocha and decided to wholeheartedly welcome the leaves, the scarves, and the cold mornings. Those Starbuck drinks though.
There’s also running…I do love those afternoon jogs where it’s the perfect workout temperature. And the crunch of those leaves as you walk…
Craving hot teas and coffees in the morning…and in the afternoon….and a night. There’s no shame. I’m a happy addict and there’s nothing cozier.
I welcome the tall boots and warm leggings. I also hope that this doesn’t happen again.
Some days I wish that someone could give me the “ok” before I leave the house. Might be a good idea. I wondered why my feet felt funny that day. Anyway…
Transition.
I think it makes sense for it to be fall. I feel like there’s a lot of changes around the corner, a hint of excitement that came with that cool, edgy breeze. It’s like a change in rhythm…and I’m looking forward to seeing what that looks like.
Are you having trouble saying goodbye to summer? What are you most looking forward to about fall?

This summer was perfect and I’m very sad to say goodbye to it. But fall’s my favorite and I have a feeling good things are ahead! :)
I love that scarf on you!
