Ever so slowly the shift as occurred. First it was the
cooler nights, then the cooler mornings. The sun is now setting earlier and it
is darker in the morning. Sweaters are needed for our morning walks. A hot tea
is welcome any time of day. Yes, the feeling of fall is in the air, and I
couldn’t be happier about it.
I could say that fall is my favourite season, but really I
like them all. There are things I enjoyed about each season, and I embrace them
with as much energy as I can each time they roll around.
I think what I really enjoy is the seasonal shift, the
movement from one season to the next. It forces me to shift, to change the
routine a bit...I like that.
Fall and winter are my all time favorite! I do not like to be hot. I also have noticed the shift. Our swing in the back is always in full sun until late afternoon in the summer. That has changed! I do love the crisper air and I love the crunch of leaves :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes, the crunch of leaves is so wonderful.
DeleteYou just opened my eyes. I always say fall is my favorite, and it probably is, but maybe it really is more about the shifts for me as well. I always enjoy the movement from one season to the next, along with the anticipation of the season-specific things to come. Enjoy this new season to its fullest! :)
ReplyDeleteYou too Sara, you have an extra special reason to enjoy this fall :)
DeleteLook at all those leaves. The shift is taking a little longer down here in the south. We haven't quite gotten to sweaters yet, but I can feel it in the air.
ReplyDeleteThere are a few there, more to come :)
Deletei love autumn and am anxiously awaiting it. until then, basking in the fact that the light is definitely shorter. a subtle bit of transition but it is there for the noticing.
ReplyDeleteenjoy those morning walks with sweaters - what a fabulous way to start your day!
Thanks, there is something so great about putting on a sweater, love it!
DeleteYes, we're starting to shift here too. Cooler evenings and a few leaves here and there. I'm starting to feel ready for this next phase: the move and the nesting that will come with it. But before then, more healing then one last push to get us packed and on our way!
ReplyDeleteSuch an exciting time for you Lisa, I look forward to following along :)
Deletei enjoy the transition into fall very much, as it is so obvious and tangible, more than with any other season. plus i love to craft with found objects from the outdoors, and that somehow works best in fall!
ReplyDeleteYes, we have been crafting with the fall treasures we have found, so much fun!!
DeleteWhile my shift here is different I have noticed it and am so excitied to have fall arrive. The biggest change here is the humidity level drops which is a good thing for my hair! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt is a good thing whenever the humidity drops. I can handle the heat, but it is the humidity that takes me down. Enjoy the arrival of fall Tracey.
DeleteIronic how my thoughts were so similar in my post today! Fall is my definite favorite season.
ReplyDeleteI think a lot of us are having the same thoughts :)
DeleteTemperatures down to 2 degrees tonight...ahhh fall, how I have missed you!! Lovely post Kim. Sums up my feelings as well. Hooray for sweater weather!!
ReplyDeleteYou are a little chillier than us right now, we were down to 5 degrees last night, the chicks didn't want to leave the coop this morning. We dug out more winter wear today.
Deleteoh how i love the fall too! i've notice my tea kettle on more frequently and an overwhelming desire to pick up my knitting projects again. the crunching leaves and the crisp light. i think those are my biggest cues, other than the cooler temps. in case i don't catch up until after, have a beautiful first day of fall in a few!
ReplyDeleteIt is really a great time of year. Happy first day of fall to you too, enjoy it!
DeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteYES YES... the change of seasons!! It is my favorite season as well. Then autumn, spring, summer and winter - in that order. the shift from one season to the next forces us to wake, to look at things with a new perspective, to whip us back into the reality that we also shift and change with the seasons... we are interconnected.
hugs, Jules
Interconnected is the perfect way to put it Jules :)
