Spring went straight into summer. I was gone a week. I know summer still has five weeks to go but that is the way it seemed. The big lilac bush bloomed while I was gone. There was new growth all over the place. All this in a week. I noticed the two patio tomato plants grew quite a bit. I still have not carefully inspected the garden. I am sure there are other changes. It has become the time of year I just wear tee shirts and shorts. Pretty soon I will be putting back the air conditioner in the bedroom. We discarded the thick blanket and the fan ran all night.

It was a brief respite from the Autumn cold. I thought I had put my shorts away for the season but today it was muggy and abnormally warm. I discarded my shirt and put on a pair of my tee shirts on along with a pair of shorts. We are getting a last burst of summer. I will enjoy the weather fully aware the cold is coming back and I have to be prepared with warmer clothing.

Indian summer is over. Within the last week, we ended a week of weather whereby it hit eighty each day. Now sometimes the high temperature of the day falls below sixty degrees. Now it is wet and cold. I am no longer wearing tee shirts and shorts. I have to pack them away. The summer is over for good at least until next year.

It was in the fifties and when I stepped out I felt cold. It is back to wearing more layers of clothing. Soon I will discard my tee shirts and shorts for the rest of the year. It is still officially Summer but it feels like Fall already. I always wondered how it would feel not to live in a temperate climate. Maybe if I didn’t, I would not appreciate spring and the warmer weather so much.

It is becoming colder. I am no longer wearing tee shirts and shorts, which I do all summer. Now I am wearing long pants and undershirt and shirt. The next thing I have to put on when it gets even colder is a sweat shirt or sweater. Fall is around the corner. The leaves are starting to fall.

It was only this week I switched to wearing only tee shirts and shorts. It finally got too humid and hot. I do not like being too warm. Every year this happens. Now for a few months that is what I will usually wear except for the cool days.

It was midway to summer. The temperatures were mild and sometimes cool. It could stay this way all the time but it won’t. I am wearing a light jacket today. I know the hot weather will come and I will switch to wearing shorts and tee shirts all the time. Weather is always so unpredictable. I am in no rush for summer to get here.

Between fifty five and sixty five degrees I usually wear insulated underwear. No jacket or sweater. But insulated underwear. It is getting warmer and soon I will switch to shorts and tee shirts when the weather will get warm and even hot. I just don’t like being cold.

It is four days into spring and I am still wearing my insulated undershirt and underwear. I know warmer temperatures are coming but I am impatient. It still feels like winter. I will know winter has finally gone when I turn off, for now, the heat in my office and when I go back to wearing shorts and tee shirts the cold weather is finally gone and summer has come for good. Every year I go through the same cycle (as far as the clothing I routinely wear). I just wish I would get there sooner.
