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<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Oh.<\/p>\n

Not sure when that happened. I guess those crisp early mornings were a good cue.<\/p>\n

\"Garden<\/p>\n

I wasn’t prepared to say goodbye to this beauty…green grass, warm summer evenings, sundresses, no jackets….<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\"Scarfs<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also running\u2026I do love those afternoon jogs where it\u2019s the perfect workout temperature. And the crunch of those leaves as you walk\u2026<\/p>\n

Craving hot teas and coffees in the morning\u2026and in the afternoon\u2026.and a night. There\u2019s no shame. I\u2019m a happy addict and there\u2019s nothing cozier.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I welcome the tall boots and warm leggings. I also hope that this doesn\u2019t happen again.<\/p>\n

\"Mismatching<\/p>\n

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\u2026<\/p>\n

Transition.<\/p>\n

\"Sunset<\/p>\n

I think it makes sense for it to be fall. I feel like there\u2019s a lot of changes around the corner, a hint of excitement that came with that cool, edgy breeze. It\u2019s like a change in rhythm\u2026and I\u2019m looking forward to seeing what that looks like.<\/p>\n

Are you having trouble saying goodbye to summer? What are you most looking forward to about fall?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
