Short and Sweet Weekend Recap
Good Monday morrow to you all. I hopeth thee hath much tomfoolery to reminisce upon from thine weekend. (Damn that would be exhausting to talk like that all of the time.) We've had biblical rain all week and weekend so road tripping would've been out of the question. No one wants to drive on slick roads for hours so we were stuck at home. I am pretty sure unless it's for pizza, we're done eating out for a while. I got so ticked trying to order from a new place and all of the hoops they wanted you to jump through that I said screw it and the Mr was ticked too and said they were shysters. ($42 for what equates to Chinese takeout "bowl". Nope.) Then he mentioned a BBQ place and I was resistant because BBQ always makes me sick, without question. I relented because we'd spent 20 minutes trying to find a place by that time and were both getting irritated. Not like we spent less than we would have if we'd gone to th...
I think of your birthday as the start of fall but it is hard to get into it when it's still 90 degrees outside. Technically September 22nd is the official first day of Fall so we'll see how close to that Mother Nature actually adheres.

ReplyDeleteThe beginning of September always has me taking a deep breath, knowing that fall is on it's way. Oftentimes our entire month is still very, very warm, but some of our leaves have already started changing and I think that's because we've had so much rain. So I still put out some fall décor because I feel like I'm encouraging the cooler days to speed it up. LOL And I'll light a baked candle or two to remind me of the season.
ReplyDeleteFor me fall starts when the leaves start to change colours. We often get very warm weather well into September due to hurricanes in the Atlantic that push the warm weather up. It is very hard to feel fall-like when you are still wearing shorts, the boat is still in the water, and you are still heading to the beach to swim in the ocean. But when the leaves start to change colours fall is hard to deny.
ReplyDeleteThe day after Labor Day has always been the marker for me...school starts, the reruns on TV are almost over, and some of the leaves have already started turning. Even though we almost always have an Indian Summer, it's still fall.
