The weather has been pretty miserable for the best part of a month here. Rain, rain and more rain, with a precious few, tentative, teasing sunny days in between.
I am sort of moody to start with, and the weather just adds to it. I don’t have it down to a science or anything, but I am more likely to be in a bad mood when it’s bad weather – though one might argue, what is ‘bad’ weather to me might be good weather to some, so for the sake of clarity and argument, let’s just say that if you want to talk to me about something and I need not to be in a bitchy mood when that conversation happens, you might have better luck picking a sunny day 
Which is why I was tempted to call this post “I hate Fall” but that woulnd’t really be accurate. Because as much as I despise the grey days and almost constant rain that characterize fall here, there are also things I like about this time of the year. So in an effort to encourage more positive thinking or just to change my moods for the better, I made a list of things I really like about Fall:
- ankle boots and opaque tights
- pretty leaves
- persimmons and roasted chestnuts
- the excuse to stay inside and curl up with a good book
- the excuse to buy a new trench coat and a cute new umbrella-ella-ella
How about you? How’s the weather where you live? Do you endure fall with a bad mood and little patience, or do you enjoy every minute of it?
