I spent a year in Argentina,
seasons switched: almost three winters straight.
Every year, I've dreaded lengthening days.
Ten years later I'm finally recovered;
I'm looking forward to seasons' change.
Darker afternoons, hot chocolate, rain, wool,
Roast turkey, candles, peppermint, Christmas parades
Watching TV under a down comforter.
The weather forecast today is 82.

Yep, still waiting on a change of weather.....it's finally started to cool off over here in North Cackalacky!
We even got rain for weeks;
I hate a bait and switch.
weather is a fickle friend. Here we are having our fall and winter late. But it is chilly now. and possibly snow this weekend.
I am ready for the idea of winter far more than the reality of it.
The weather here in Northern California seems hotter than it was over the summer and it's November. I can't wait for the change to cold weather, it's so cozy.
I LOVE the last line of this. In Virginia we are enjoying a brisk fall day with the leaves creating a patchwork on the sidewalks and streets. Given this past winter's snow fall, I am a bit uncertain as to whether I am ready for winter to arrive... let it be a long fall.
Am ready for winter coat days -- by Northern California standards, that is.
Yet another chance for personal growth!
You finally accept seasons, they CHANGE.
Yeesh.
Here's hoping for grey days again...
