The summer that wasn’t

August 31, 2009 by kathi

I don’t think summer ever really got here. Except for maybe a week’s worth, in total, of dangerously hot and humid days, the entire summer was unseasonably cool and much too rainy for my taste. The yard doesn’t look as a bad as a Rottweiler-ravaged yard should, thanks to that rain and the resultant grassy growth spurts. But that’s it for silver linings.

And now, it’s the last day of August, still unseasonably cool or even cold, and summer is gone without ever having really been here. What an aggravating year this has been so far in so many ways.

    I just wrote a post on my love of fall. Given this post, I wonder if you will love or hate it. 🙂

      LOL! Fall is my favorite season, but as long as I’m living somewhere that supposedly has all four seasons, I like to see them all make an appearance 🙂

    Sounds like the summer we’ve had, here in Northern Maine! The day school went back in session, the weather got hot and humid.

      Since the whole country is sharing in crazy weather, I guess it’s not just Mother Nature playing a personal joke on me 🙂
