From this months' October issue of Ladies Home Journal I have this absurd fascination with Autumn. I think it's because when one lives in a climate with a hot summer, the yearning for cool weather comes to the forefront of our minds -- especially when, a few days before the first day of fall, it's 98 degrees! We have seasons here in Sacramento too. Which makes this yearning so much harder. I know it's coming; I know the sweaters and boots and cool walks, the pumpkins and hot coffee are headed this way. It also reminds me of school. And I don't think that ever goes away. Though I've been out of college for years, I smell the autumnal air and it reminds me of going to class, happy for a new year, and ready to accomplish something important. Or even better, school shopping with my kids makes me want to buy pencils and paper for myself. So, I do. And this is where the writing comes in because Autumn is a wonderful time for it.
