Shorter Days

Sadly, I am beginning to notice the shorter daylight on both ends of the days. It's sad, really. In previous years, I would be in a snit to get everything on my summer list accomplished because the summer was quickly winding down and school would start soon. I don't have that rush anymore, but I still feel it a bit. The seasons are not nearly as fun to experience without my family here. In a few weeks, the robins will be gone and life will return to boring without hearing their melodious songs in the early mornings. There is still a lot of summer left, but it is definitely on the downswing. At least I still have my lightning bugs, and the other hot-weather sounds are still with us: cicadas during the day and katydids at night!

I need to find a way to be more productive during the days. It is so easy to slack off when no one is here but me. I'll keep working on that!
