So much for you to draw in Autumn as well.

It makes me appreciate the quality of the light and the amazing sunrises and sunsets all the more in between all those grey days we have.

So, trying to be positive, every day is a day nearer the winter solstice when the longer days will begin to appear.

You are my twin . . . or I am yours. <br /><br />I don't care how many times Monty Don eulogises claiming this is the beginning of the gardening year, it is the end. For me it is not a time to look forward eagerly, it is a time to note what did not happen, be sad about that which failed and did not grow. Every night now when I take Daisy out after supper it is just that little bit darker, soon I will need a torch. <br /><br />Autumn Equinox marks a point of darkening and I now look forward eagerly to the winter solstice after which it will get a little lighter each day. I know I should not wish life away, but at this time of year I do.Bag End Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190496929132717769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671225480721447118.post-28550945748215190882018-09-24T07:41:04.640+01:002018-09-24T07:41:04.640+01:00I do like this time of year.

This year summer was too hot for me and I actually feel I was deprived of the normal summer and so share the disappointment you so ably expressed. Still this mornng we have blue skies!Cathyhttps://nanacathydotcom.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671225480721447118.post-73085963170437015552018-09-23T22:36:32.274+01:002018-09-23T22:36:32.274+01:00Sometimes Kate I'm not sure, as I do like havi...Sometimes Kate I'm not sure, as I do like having 4 seasons, but miss the brightness of the warmer weather. Extreme heat & cold are what I really don't like and dull dreary days. Apart from that I like the colour changes of spring & autumn and can see the beauty in leafless trees, then blossom & leaf coverage. I couldn't live in the tropics with relentless heat & humidity or the arctic circle with biting cold winds. I try and appreciate what we have through the year, though I do think I suffer a little SAD & whinge (a lot) about my chillblains, which this year are hanging on now into September. How about a warm Xmas in Oz?

The bright, crisp sunny days I love, the grey, damp and windy ones, not so much.

So although I dont mind a bit of early Autumn weather and leaves falling just for a change, I could quite happily miss winter and get back to spring straight away.Sue in Suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166036914348424622noreply@blogger.com
