It Isn't Over

We still have two months of summer

Can you feel it? It’s the whisper of back to school shopping, the specter of August and then September and then next thing you know it’s going to be freezing cold and the sun will be setting at 4 pm. Oops, bit of an anxiety spiral there. Back to today, July 27th.

I’m feeling the need to focus on the present at the moment even though it feels like time is flying by. It’s still warm out, we still have late sunsets (I got home last night after 8 pm and it was still light out) and hopefully lots of sunshine ahead. The dread is creeping in as we battle extreme heat (it really does make you feel grouchy), air quality issues, etc, but I want to remind myself to make time for farmers markets and spontaneous drinks and long walks. There will still be coats to buy once it actually gets cold and maybe then they’ll even be on sale.

How are you feeling these days?
