The days are getting shorter and I think it's affecting my mood. I'm like a cat that needs to stretch in the sun. I don't want summer to fade away. It feels like it just got here and now it's departing. I blinked and now the sunsets, although beautiful, are coming earlier and earlier. My evenings outside are shorter and shorter.
Locusts sing to me now. I will admit that is probably my favorite sound of fall. It is somehow soothing as I wish those long summer evenings would stay. Now I must transition into the cooler days and longer nights. I must adapt.
My creative urge will surely spark. Trapped inside by the colder upcoming weather, I'll surely get that book written I've started. I'll knit on my loom. I'll still dance and I'll keep getting thinner. I will not allow fall and then winter to make me dormant. I'll do my level best to emerge as a beautiful butterfly with new wings in the spring.
I think I'll do some self hypnosis along the way to help me visualize some warm revitalizing sun.
Everyday is still going to bring me closer to my dreams...sun, wind, rain or snow.

Fall and winter is the time of self reflect before the time of rebirth and the enjoying the life outside again. through this time of inner reflection you will find warmth even in the coldest of days. it's the progression of life and it seen through nature. embrace and come together within yourself and all will be well. The darkness will bring forth happiness and calmness as the days go by till the twinkling of spring.
good luck

I was feeling that way just a few days ago! We have STUNNING sunsets in the summer and I noticed I've had to move my viewing time each night. I started to get a little sad, especially because it FEELS like fall here with the temps. being so fall like. It's been feeling more like September/October than August for weeks now.I'm looking forward to your knitting! A favorite of mine that you write about!{{{HUGS}}}Daily -

CW - Though I have always loved the start of the school year, I hate the thought of summer leaving. I love swimming in the ocean, and of course, that will soon be gone, at least for another 10 months or so ...Thanks for putting a positive spin on coccooning.All the best - Wishy -

I love fall or autumn as we call it, that first chill in the air. Our summer has been really wet this year, but humid as well, I'll be glad to see that back of it. -

Daily,
We've had some beautiful sunsets here too. As much as I hate to see summer go, we are having a gorgeous fall so far.
I'm working on a hat right now for my mom. Then I have an idea for a scarf on the small loom with some "fun fur" yarn. I'll post a pic if it turns out like I hope it will.
Wishy,
You are welcome. There really is something about the start of school that is fun.
queen,
I suppose the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. :-)
Batty,
In that case, I hope you have a wonderful fall. :-)
donnaaaaa,
Thank you.
