That's probably why I felt the need to organize and declutter and all before school started. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with the weight loss!Melodeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05705323208228362504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1157517008761952172006-09-06T00:30:00.000-04:002006-09-06T00:30:00.000-04:00I completely agree.

To me, summer is often a time of self indulgence. Good weather, vacation, barbeques. Fall is the time to get back on track, back to school, back to facing the reality that summer is once more a long way off. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1157400397464284182006-09-04T16:06:00.000-04:002006-09-04T16:06:00.000-04:00Autumn/fall my favorite time of year.you & cuppa...Autumn/fall my favorite time of year.<BR/>you & cuppa have a wonderful day! :)Kathy Trejohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08320525571609595412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1157380749901758922006-09-04T10:39:00.000-04:002006-09-04T10:39:00.000-04:00Lovely post.

AC - I couldn't agree more. I've rented a stroage unit and the key to its lock is my talisman for 'change'. Yes, time is moving rather quickly and these days of diminishing light stir the blood. Change is in the air. Time to prepare. For what? No matter, it feels good to be out of summer's doldrums.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1157380562902504802006-09-04T10:36:00.000-04:002006-09-04T10:36:00.000-04:00Great post and so true!I, too, have done a bit of ...Great post and so true!<BR/>I, too, have done a bit of re-evaluation and looked at things which must fade and others which might start.<BR/>To this I have just started learing Italian!

The spaghetti squash sounds like a good idea, that is one squash species that I've never grown - need to change that.

To me it's the beginning of going inward to winter, while the outside (gardens) are finishing up and ending their cycle. The years do seem to go by faster and faster, it doesn't seem like a year since you've moved. Good luck on the new changes and adjustments and I can't help but be curious as to what that last past is about!PBShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01672893473413051922noreply@blogger.com
