Good morning everyone and welcome to the last days of August.  It pains me to turn the calendar page to September.  I will make no apologies for what I’m about to say: “I LOVE summer.”  Yes, there it is.  I can’t count the number of people who have exclaimed “I love the fall -it’s so beautiful!”.  Yes, it is beautiful.  It peaks for about 7-10 days, tops.  Then it’s over.  That’s it.  It heralds my least favorite season – winter, which except for Thanksgiving and Christmas doesn’t appeal much to me.  Last year in New England it lasted for 9 months (ok, I’m exaggerating, but you get the gist).

I drew two cards this morning from my Lenormand deck and asked “Will I get to enjoy summer into September?”.  I shuffled liberally, then removed the top and bottom cards from the deck.  I got the woman and man cards which represents me and my husband Ben, and we both LOVE summer equally.  So there you have it everyone – Al Roker, move over.  The cards have spoken, and this couple is telling you that there’s more warmth left to enjoy.

So pull up a chair, and feel the sun on your face.   While it lasts.
