The point of no return
Here in my corner of the world, Autumn takes it’s time in settling. The color of the leaves changed noticeably only a week ago. And today, as our family drove to a friends house for some college football and food, I saw that most of them had dropped overnight. To me, the falling of the leaves, is the point of no return. No more warm days, no more outings without at least a jacket, no more soft smooth hands.
Winter, sadly, is upon me again. Christmas, it’s only bright point, will all too soon be a distant memory. January, February and March soon to come will draaaaaaag on and on.
Sorry. It’s just one of those days.

I wonder how close you are to my sister? She’s in Gaithersburg.
oh! i’m sorry the sad idea of a long winter is looming. i wish i could cheer you up somehow!
How well I understand this feeling! I love Autumn but it is far, far too short. And Spring? Is far, far too far away.
I’m sorry winter is so hard for you! Would some good chocolate help cheer you up?
I understand… I grew up in Idaho and winter starts in October most years and ends in April…. sometimes May. And the chapped hands - mine usually end up bleeding at one point or another.
