Autumn Equinox

By
Real Estate Agent with Beachfront Realty 3220434

Even though I live in South Florida and it will seem like summer for several more months the Autumn Equinox which occurs on September 22 will be a game changer. Yes, a mental adjustment for me occurs and I don't really like it.

You see, summertime equals freedom to me. That freedom that is learned as a kid when the last day of school bell rings. No responsibilities, carefree days at the beach, all that good fun stuff. Once autumn came around it all ended.

As an adult my summers are pretty much spent as if I was still a kid. Carefree days at the beach and a very limited work load. Once that autumn bell tolls it will trigger the adult in me and my carefree days at the beach are over, back to work I go. I miss summer already.

Good Tuesday morning Marco Giancola -

We too are already feeling the changes of seasons with cooler nights and crisp mornings.  We are summertime people and like you are already missing the longer days of summer.

The colors and crispness in the air are delightful as I recall. What comes after that is what made me leave NY

I would be perfectly happy if summer was around for a few more months. At least our weather is still warm, despite the shorter days and the dreaded time change coming in early November!

Hey Jeff-I am right there with you on that. Those long dark nights kill me!

Fall has hit in my area big time.  Soon the snow will begin to fly and the flip flops will be stored away until the warm days of summer return.  Wish I could spend some of my cold months in the warmth of your Florida sunshine!

Wow Belinda-fall already????

It's funny how the feelings you have about seasons, or even days of the week as a kid linger with you as an adult.  For me, I hate Sundays.  Monday was back to school.

Sep 20, 2016 01:13 AM
Marco Giancola

Hey Chris-yes that's it! They do stay with you. I had an issue with Sundays too-first dreaded church (in latin) then staying dressed up for Sunday dinner then the anticipation of school Monday-LOL

Hi Marco --- I am reliving some of my end of Summer days of yesteryear with the return of my back-to-school cold I used to experience.

Good morning Marco.  I agree summer is my favorite time of the year.  Sigh

Sep 20, 2016 07:15 PM
Marco Giancola

Sigh is right, even though I have not been a kid for like 50 years I still have the same feeling. So strange.
