#ThankfulThursday Heat Reprieve

I’m incredibly thankful to have seen mid-80 degree weather for a couple of days, followed by upper-60 degree nights. After spending months above 90 and hoping to see mid-70s by morning, it was such a relief to step outside without feeling like I’d sweat standing still. It was a pleasure to open the windows in the evening and enjoy fresh breezes and the sounds of crickets chirp as we fell asleep. Alas, it was only a brief reprieve as we’re now on our way back to the sweltering temperatures we’ve been suffering all summer. Of course, I should remember that we’re not in Florida anymore — the 90-degree weather will be gone soon enough. I can’t wait. I’m looking forward to crisp breezes, changing leaves, apples, pumpkins, and the scent of cinnamon and cloves permeating the air. I’m looking forward to welcoming back my sweaters and scarves sooner than normal.
