Right now I am surrendering to humidity and heat and thus I have resorted to the reality that I am happy being stuck by the window with the laptop in the coffee house over exploring outside. *sigh* I do love summer but am finding that it doesn’t offer the refuge that it once did – and more due to my own schedule over my daughter’s.

But if truth be told, I am a fan of autumn, when the air turns cool and the leaves change colors. It is my favorite time of year. It always has been. Summers on the east coast are really humid and this has been a very, very hot one. Did I mention the mosquitoes? I must admit that I have spent most of my summer anticipating its end, so that the next season – fall – can arrive. After reading your post, I am going to rethink my perspective; at least for what remains of summer.

Happy Anniversary!

The pictures of the blueberries make my mouth water. We seldom get them fresh where I live, but I do remember a summer in Vermont and eating berries off the vine. I don’t remember if they were blueberries, but they were good.

Since I returned from my trip overseas, I’ve been trying to catch up and keep energy up to do the things I love. A part of me truly wants to surrender to summer and just sit around, reading books and watching my cat sleep. I actually do this on the weekends, as well as a few days in the week. Consequently, I don’t have the excuse that I’m over-worked:~)

Thanks for the sigh of summer’s “lazy, hazy days.”

So I did, and took a bunch of stuff off my calendar. I immediately felt lighter. (happy anniversary!)

You remind me that I haven’t surrendered to summer, though I’m trying to keep up with a 20-minute walk in the sunshine, on the days there is sunshine. That in itself is stress-reducing and energizing. And that ain’t bad…

Congratulations to both of us! xx

Less scheduled time and more energy to embrace the slowness of it all. Glad you are enjoying your time with your family. xoxo
