Bear with me. I need to whine a sec!

It always seems that around this time in the Summer, I suddenly get tired of Summer and start looking forward to the Fall! Maybe because I LOVE Fall around here!!! So many fun things to do in New England and I am just tired of the heat and humidity. I always love Spring...but the perfect Spring weather just doesn't last very long around here. SIGH! And the humidity makes me cranky and gives me migraines....and it makes my son cranky.

So yes...I know a lot of you probably LOVE Summer...but I am done..and ready for the first cool, fresh day of Fall....AHHHHHHHHH!!! I want to wear a cozy sweater go pumpkin pickin!

Thanks! All done whining now!! :)

    I've been COUNTING THE DAYS!!!! I love fall and as early as summer comes to these parts, I start pining for it around the 1st of July. I think July 4th should be the last of summer and fall should start!!!!!!!!

    It's a cute kitty hugging what is that thing? Heater radiator thing I think.....

    And yes, while I love the sunshine and all the things we COULD do I can't wait for fall! Winter's my fav season and summers just wayyyy too hot for me

    I work as a Para at a school, so I'm NOT ready to rush into fall yet!
    I'm also not in a hurry to start shelling out tons of money for oil to heat my house this winter!
    So, NOPE, I'm NOT in a royal hurry for fall! :laugh:

    Fall is my favorite time of year actually!!! I love everything from the weather to the foliage to the pumpkins ( must be a NE thing hahaha!!) This year fall will be different for me because I will be starting a new job in September..so I am more nervous than anything..and won't think about the fall right now..just trying to hang on to summer as long as I can LOL!

    I was thinking the other day. . ."how far north do I have to move to get somewhere where it NEVER gets hot?"

    I just don't like it. I can't wait for sweater weather, either.:flowerforyou:

    sssshhhh don't tell anyone but I think I even like Thanksgiving more than Christmas....don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE Christmas fan, love the decorations, love buying gifts etc....but Thanksgiving is just so much less stressful and it is all about Fall!!!!!

    Ya'll need to come visit me in Michigan then! It got down to a cool 59 degrees last night. :smile: It was awesome weather to go for a walk but let's not wish Summer away! I only get 2 months of Summer as it is and the rest is pretty much snow and ice! :grumble:

    LOL! Yeah, as bad as Winters are HERE (The Nor 'Easters)....they have to be BRUTAL there! We are so picky! Fall, sweater weather...coziness....but keep the frigid temps and keep the humidity...just make it perfect!

    Hmm, California weather is pretty close to being perfect for me!! When we were in Santa Barbara, during the day was warm.....like mid-80s but not humid at all....breezy....and in the evening it actually get's pretty chilly! We actually had the heater on in the car one evening! But man....that is perfect for me. Perfect sleeping weather.

    That means it's football season and you get to cozy up under a blanket with your hubby......night fall games are the best down here in the south!!

    My b-days in November so of course I love November plus I'm just a Christmas nut!! I always over spend and just love how close all the family gets and how happy everyone is. The biggest plus has to be covering up in a sweater on a "fat" day :laugh:

    Oh man! You just reminded me of the one thing that ruins Fall for me! FOOTBALL! LOL! I don't mind it but my hubby is an INSANE Washington Redskins fan. His rational thought goes COMPLETELY out the window during football season! SIGH!!! LOL! He's already talking about the first pre-season game!

    I love college ball, I can't wait for the season to start....even though when I go to an LSU game early in the season it's all tank tops and shorts because it's still sizzling out!!

    have to admit, we don't get summer here in Scotland, so i don't see what all the fuss is about :laugh:

    however, also being a November child means i love autumn (it's called autumn people! :smile:)

    especially October when i spent my childhood holidays in the highlands, where it was generally just starting to snow and was very Golden. no snow now though, change in the jet stream means it is just generally wet all year (except August when the sun comes out we get very long evenings and the Festival is on in edinburgh, bliss).

    I LOVE the summer, but your right about the humidity, I hate the days when you can just see it hanging in the air. Fall is nice, but when your in Canada, it just means it's closer to the days when it's too cold. I hibernate in the winter because I can't take that icy cold wind!
