The Perfect End to Summer
The last few days have been odd. That is the only way to describe them. I have gone through every imaginable emotion. Right. All of them. The good news is that my hair isn’t falling out (as it tends to do when I’m stressed.)
It’s really funny, I have been calling every day this week the 23rd. I’ve post dated checks (quite by accident!), but it has just seemed that every day this week, I’ve thought it was the 23rd.
Laure brought it to my attention ever so gently that fall begins on the 23rd. I boldly proclaimed that this past Tuesday (19th) was the first day of fall…and I’m not sure what even prompted this declaration as I only know that 6/21 is the first day of Summer. I've always looked forward to Summer...never Fall. So, that said, there’s something to this date. I know not what it is, but I do look forward to it (obviously!)
And Summer WILL end perfectly. It rained all morning (and yes, I was up to witness it all…12:40-3:00 or so!) It has been gray for the majority of the day and even this evening, it’s raining still…but the sun’s out. Brightly. And there are not one, but two rainbows just outside my window. Yes: rain, bright sunshine, and two beautiful rainbows at 6:30 pm will mark the end of Summer 2006 for me. I’m going to bed right now! Or very soon, anyway.
Happy Fall.
