On Saturday, it was 100 degrees. I was okay with that. Yes, I was lying under the covers shivering from a 102 fever, but I LOVE warm weather. While 100 is a little on the hot side, I would much rather be hot than cold.

I guess summer went out with a bang because the temperature dropped 40 degrees in 24 hours. On Monday, our high was 61. I had to throw on a sweatshirt! (Isn't it funny how 60 in spring feels so warm, but 60 in fall feels like winter?) I also had to take my Best Girl shopping for some fall clothes. Since we don't usually have temps like this until October, the change found me unprepared. I have never taken my Best Girl clothes shopping before, so this was the first time I allowed her to have input in the clothes-buying process. Thankfully, she is a 6x, so we are spending one more season on the cute side of the aisle. I had to laugh when I held something up and she replied, "Mom, that does not fit in with my coolness!" I foresee differing opinions about clothing in the future. :)

Although I don't like shopping for myself, I am going to have to make a trip or two this week as well. Due to my recent eating changes and weight loss, I have exactly ONE pair of jeans/pants that fit. I have no "church" clothes for cool weather, and very few tops. It's like I am starting from scratch! Many females would love this challenge, but I don't care for it at all. For me, it seems like one more thing on the to-do list.

I know many people love fall weather, and I do as well, but in my mind, the change means that winter is around the corner. Thankfully, the temperatures will be back in the 80s this weekend. I'll hold on to the warmth for as long as possible!
