I have decided that if I am ever given the opportunity to change what I am doing, I am going to go back to school to become a meteorologist.
I am completely convinced that is the only way that I will ever be able to understand the weather.
One day we can't go outside for recess because it is below 40 and then within the next couple of days, they are stacking their coats a mile high because it is too hot to play with them on!!!!
Day before yesterday, I was power walking with no jacket at all! Today I wasn't able to go because I was wrapped up in a tiny ball at the foot of my bed - just trying to contain my body heat and stay warm!! AND we are under a tornado warning tonight!!!!
This weather is crazy! I just wish that a season would come and stay for the three or so months it is supposed to be here.
Take a look off of my deck.
Do you see the "naked trees"? They aren't supposed to be naked yet! We have a whole other month until winter. We are supposed to see all those pretty colors for just a few more weeks :(
(yum! See that big bowl of sweet potatoes we just dug up? Delicious!)
It's just starting to look so desolate and drab. Pretty soon it will all be bare.
There are only a few things that can bring me out of a cold, gloomy day fog.
Movies. Chocolate. Foot rubs. Naps.
And the reminder that it is
RED CUP SEASON!!!!
The Mr. and I are actually leaving the house here in just a few to take advantage of a BOGO for holiday drinks. Just the thought of it makes my day a little warmer and a little brighter.
Are you feeling it too?
Well, you are in luck!
Since I know it makes me feel better- I'm sharing the love!

ReplyDeleteOh yes! Coffee= Smiles! I love anything Starbucks! We have quite a collection of Starbucks mugs, an apron, and our own Starbucks espresso machine- unfortunately they don't sell them anymore. I start every day with a latte, or two, and still love to hit up Starbucks when I go to Kroger.

ReplyDeleteGingerbread latte to pumpkin spice! Yum!!!
ReplyDeleteI had a little chuckle about the not going out under forty we go out unless it is below zero, we think 40 is a heat wave.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite flavor is Caramel Brulee Latte. I even have a formula for them to make it for me in the off season.
