I have been longing for some fall weather. The tempertures have been in the high 70's and low 80's for what seems like forever. I love the fall. I love the crispness in the air, the turning of the leaves and most of all I love wearing sweaters! However, where we live now does not give way to the typical fall weather. In fact, I noticed on weather.com the other day that tomorrow is supposed to be 80 degrees. That is so not fall weather! I feel jipped out of fall. But I must adapt to this new place. I know that there are many out there that would envy my position and long to live here. I am grateful, don't get me wrong. It has already snowed in Michigan and I do not miss that! It would seem that my winter coat has been retired along with my snow boots, but I would like to wear my chunky light blue sweater a little more often. I think I need to expand my daily wardrobe so I don't wear out my 'summer' clothes. I never expected to have to wear my t-shirts everyday for six plus months! Again, I'm not complaining....who would complain about having to go shopping?!
Today it is 60 degrees with some misting of rain. I get to wear my lovely sweater today! Horray! It's about time. The sky is overcast with those misty clouds and I can open all my blinds. No need to turn on the air conditioner to cool off the back room where the afternoon sun tends to heat up. Yes, it is a very nice day today. But I wonder if it is just a fluke, if will temperture will really be 80 tomorrow? Will I wear a chunky sweater one day then capris and short sleeves the next? Whatever happens tomorrow I will enjoy today and my cozy, warm sweater!

Yay for the sweaters!! Over here, it seemed like we had an extended summer as well. But, so far we have had 3 days of rain showers and the temp. has definetly been a lot cooler. Our heater has already kicked on during the night! I hope you can have more of your "fall" days :)
Hee hee ... my southern-CAL born and raised self feels very little sympathy as I sit in snowy Alaska. =)
It is very different to live in a warm year-round climate. If we had a gazillion dollars, I would want to spend more of my winter in So Cal (we come down for a week during Christmas break every year and stay in Newport Beach, CA) but the snow is beautiful too. =)
I'm blessed to have lived in both types of climates - many only have the opportunity to live within one!
Diane....I too am blessed to have lived in different climates. It makes me appreciate the diversity that the Lord created in this world. Plus, if I hadn't lived in Michigan then I wouldn't know how great it is to not live with snow anymore! :)
Have a nice warm mug of cocoa and think of me!
I do love seasons, but I also love the feel of the San Diego area. There is just something wonderful about it. When we have been visiting for the holidays it seems like it is just cool enough for a light sweater, so don't give up! Keep that chunky blue sweater around, it will see some use!
I love the seasons too, but sometimes long for a place where it stays warm all year long. I especially feel that way today as I have not been able to get and stay warm all day. Ugh!
Enjoy your sweater weather while it lasts. :D
Today we are back to sweater weather. Yesterday seemed like winter with a biting wind.
Have fun shopping!
Ha! I also missed the fall days and wearing sweaters when I first moved to San Diego, but after a few short years I acclimated and now pull out the sweaters when the weather dips into the 60s. :-)
What I wouldn't give for some significant leaf color changes, though. sigh...
