News dampens spirits,
Is the weather mimicking?
Summer has vanished

It’s July 2nd and in my area of the Pacific Northwest we are experiencing what I feel is a late start to good ol’ summertime.
The weather has been very changeable, quite like the daily news reports.
We’ve had a few warm days but not many and it seems more like Spring to me instead of Summer, as each day I awaken to gloomy cloudy skies, chilly temps and occasional rain sprinkling, this can put a damper on one’s spirit quite like the morning news reports often do lately.
Sigh. Oh where, oh where has my beloved Summer gone? Has she vanished with all our other normalcy?
I hope not. I hope she returns soon. I miss her sunny smile and gentle hugs of warmth.
How’s the weather where you reside? Are you experiencing the same, or does Summer alive and active in your area?

I’m sorry to hear that Leona. We have been having mostly sunny days and quite high temperatures here and it’s very much like summer. Hoping it keeps up like this for the next few months.
Thanks Diane. I am glad you are having Summer days. You deserve them after enduring all those snowy winter days you had!
I just hope our weather warms up soon here.
