Usually about this time in August I am wondering where the summer went and feeling a little sad that the “back to school” sales have started.

Not this year.

I am annoyed that there are 31 days this July because it means that I’m one day farther away from fall. why, oh why, am I so eager for fall to come around? Simple. It’s not hot. I’ll be able to walk outside and enjoy the lovely homes and streets in my neighborhood without feeling instantly sticky and dehydrated. I can wear sweaters. I’ll be past the nothing-sounds-appetizing-all-water-tastes-
disgusting-breathless-from-walking-to-the-kitchen first-trimester part of this pregnancy, and maybe be able to pull myself out of bed before noon. School starts so I can start subbing again, or maybe have a “real” job, if I’m lucky. Halloween is closer, and we all know that that means costumes and candy and caramel apples and Burton movies, all things that I adore.

I hope all ya’ll are not like me and are enjoying every last ounce of this sweltering summer. May your ice cream sandwiches melt slowly.
loves,
elle
