Everyone is a twitter with the coming of fall. I hear people exclaim how they LOVE autumn. The leaves (ok, those are pretty) the cool weather, foot ball, slower pace, school, yadda yadda yaddah. I hate it. I have already started my countdown until the days start getting longer. It used to be the winter was so horrible but not anymore. June 21st or whatever Summer solstice is, is the worst day of the year because you know you are on the down swing. Winter solstice brings hope. It is the last of the darkness coming out of the tunnel. Sure, it is slow but everyday I count the minutes.
I am also pissed off because my summer was marked by saddness and pain (two trips to the emergency room that I could have just simply done without. Thank you very much stress and middle age.
Well, I did get to see Cirque du Soleil. My husband bought four VIP tickets last May. We were absolute dead center and dead front. We could see the performers sweating and making eye contact (the eye contact was a little unnerving). My sister and brother in law went with us. It was the most fabulous thing I think I have ever seen. We are now planning to see them in Vegas sometime in the near future.
Things I look forward to:
Next summer when all the above bullshit is well underway (except for our school situation. I hope it improves)
I am getting a kiln this year at school. I can't wait to do clay.
