September

What does September mean to you?

  • Are you excited about School starting?
  • Or are you starting university? That is excitement on a whole different level!
  • Oh yes, with schools back, that means that education workers are also back to work! (Sorry about that reminder!)
  • Are you excited, maybe, for a quiet, child-free, September vacation? Decidedly less children in the jacuzzi.
  • Or maybe you prefer autumn over summer?
  • Which brings pumpkins, Halloween, sweaters and turkey to mind!
  • Oh the Pumpkin Spice Latte is already at Starbucks!
  • What does September mean to you? I’ll wait!

Thank you for reading & commenting!

    I love September for the cooler weather. Also bar-b-ques. 3 of my 4 grandkids are starting school this week so my wife set up a tea party for them. I raised my tea cup and said, “here’s to a great summer”, it was a good closing note.
