    The past couple of weeks the temps have been in the 80's - seasonable for this time of year - and not that oppressive heat we had with temps of 100+ for almost 2 weeks straight. Today is rather steamy tho, even tho not too hot. For the past week I've been leaving the house every morning at 7:30 to take my grandson to soccer practice, and one day I actually had to turn the heat on in the car for a few minutes to take the chill off. Of course it warms up during the day tho.

    One thing I LOVE about this time of year - Fall is almost here and we'll soon be enjoying the cooler weather. Hope Mother Nature doesn't have any surprises up her sleeve like a few years ago when we were still having to have the a.c. on till mid October! I love my sweatshirts and can't wait till I have to get them out again!

    I voted "other", and I will try to expain:

    I like the light, and the green trees, the flowers, the crops and everything... I also like the sunshine.
    I don't like the heat, and I hate the humidity; especially at night. I wouldn't mind hot days if the nights were cool, but often, they are not in my area. If that happens, I'm having problems to get the heat and the muggy air out of my rooms, and I don't like that.

    But over the last three years, we had really gloomy and rainy summers, and I found that's really depressing. I'm missing the light.
