Okay, so not really. For one, it is too hot. However, this IS Alabama, so it's almost always hot. I'm sure it FEELS like fall SOMEWHERE in the United States right now!
I probably say this every year, but I can't help myself...
I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR!!!
This time of year, I feel like I come alive. I get this sense of anticipation and excitement. I'm ready for cool nights (AND DAYS!!!). I'm ready for sweaters, scarves, and boots. I'm ready for pumpkin spice lattes and holidays. I'm ready for some FOOTBALL!!!
Friday, I went to the park to walk. It was my first time going out there in over a month, so it was long overdue. It wasn't bad when I got there, but by the time I was halfway through the trail, it was ridiculous! The heat was awful. But there was something about the way the sun was shining that morning as I drove to the park. It felt like I was waking up and I suddenly felt very excited and I burst out, "IT'S FALL, Y'ALL," even though I was alone in my car and no one could hear me. The sun seems to shine differently in the fall. I can't explain it. But it makes me happy. In those moments, it doesn't matter what is going on in my life, I know everything is going to be okay.
