Did you feel it?

Apparently, this morning, Sunday, September 23rd, at 5:51am, while I was fast asleep, Summer ended.

There should have been a shudder, or maybe a sonic boom. I am sorry - but no one asked me if this was okay. I had a long list of things to do this summer and I did not get to everything.

♠ I had some wonderful trips away with John: Windsor, Toronto, Milwaukee...

♠ I saw Roger Waters, John Fogerty, and Ian Hunter in concert...

♠ I stood in line with Barb to purchase the final installment of Harry Potter and read it in under 24 hours...

♠ I Walked for Wishes and went to the Cleveland Zoo....

♠ I saw the Indians play...

♠ I saw fireworks...

♠ I got to spend some time with my big sister Diana and her girls, even if it did mean that Breanna was in the hospital...

♠ I visited Denver and Minneapolis...

♠ I ate at Sonic...

♠ I went to the Geauga County Fair and John got to win me prizes at games of skill...

♠ I attended some fine Happy Owlers with my Chi Omega Sisters...

♠ We grew some peppers in the garden and cooked wonderful meals with them...

♠ I had some lovely chats with my new 'pretend online friends' and even hung out with them in person...

♠ I finally went to Hollo's...

♠ I rocked out to Custard Pie...

♠ I enjoyed the Summer television season, I love 'The Closer', and 'Monk', and 'Psych'...

♠ I started a blog...

But we were going to go fishing! And have some picnics! I was going to sit outside on the shaded patio in the warmth and the breezes and take advantage of my amazing wireless internet capability. I was going to visit my parents and my son more. I was going to read some good books. I wanted to create some art.

Do you have any idea how long and hard I had to look to find a changing leaf for the opening photo? I guess I'll put those things on the list for Fall. Plenty of time.

After all - It is harvest time right?
