There were so many things I planned to do that didn't happen. The forecast still looks like summer but it is deceptive; the highs are temps reached for maybe an hour and it gets dark sooner. I have grown fond of warm and hot; the first chill will signal the time of waiting for it to be nice again. The change of seasons in Fall and Winter are not something I look forward to at all anymore.

I LOVE fall and winter (and I live in a very grey and rainy place)! Just think about all the things you want to do indoors that you would feel guilty doing when the sun is shining brightly outside (maybe one of those things is planning a warm weather vacation!)

I hate summer so much......I'm so sick in it......the heat makes me so sick.....I sweat so badly from every pore......I feel like I'm being roasted inside my core....my head throbs, my stomach feels sicker and I feel so bloated, swollen and painful....it's a heavy, heavy lethargic feeling. The winter is just as bad in different ways. I didn't used to be like this.....I've always sweat a lot but didn't get sick from it until my 20's and it's just gotten worse. I used to love the cold and could go out wet, barefoot in shorts in the winter without problems......now the winter hurts so badly. I live for spring and fall but they don't always end up being good seasons for me for other reasons.

The weather is getting colder and I feel it in my bones already. I've had the heater on a few times already too. I'm not looking forward to the cold but I'm rarely looking forward to much it seems. I wish I could be like others and enjoy the seasons and outdoors.

I'm like Elsa...I turn into a dirty, stinky sweat factory all summer. But the cold weather is starting to take it's toll on this old body too. Still, you can always put on more clothes in winter...can't take everything off in summer. Well, you can but then they come and take you away.

This summer, which I had willed to be a good season, turned out to be a very challenging season. I did accomplish quite a bit, though. I am immensely grateful for the cooler weather - although next week will be quite warm - but while I used to like the long nights when I was younger, I no longer do. The low sun and shorter days cause me to feel anxious and depressed. And I will miss baseball . But, it is what it is and I will do my best to enjoy the autumn.
