What do sweaters and the month of May have in common?

We'll here in GA you wear them...here it is the end of May and I have on a sweater...earlier in the month, like in the middle to late end I wore them because it was cold enough outside for a sweater. Now that the weather is nice or hot as they say down South, I have to wear it inside because the air is on and its cold....or maybe they're just trying to freeze me out...

Another thing I love about GA today while I was stuck in my office it was beautiful outside, so much in fact that I came home for lunch and ate by the pool. I rolled my pant legs up and let my legs dangle in the water while I read my institute lesson for tonight. I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO looking forward to coming home and throwing my suit on and swimming before institute. But no, it decided to rain. Which I am glad it did because we certainly need it, but why couldn't it rain while I was stuck inside and I could watch it from my window?

So I'm discovering that GA has this thing called seasons (I think that is how you spell it). As it is a foreign concept to us that are from Vegas I will explain. There is this thing called winter. It is cold and sometimes involves snow. You actually have to wear a jacket, even when the sun is shining. Well then the winter goes away and turns into this thing called spring. It starts to warm up and most of the time you don't need a jacket or even a sweater when the sun is shining. But don't get caught without when when its dark, it can get mighty chilly. Now summer is a little different. Its a WHOLE lot shorter and lot damper. One thing I am discovering is that I like the humidity. I like the muggy feeling. I haven't yet discovered why this is. It does nothing for my hair that already does nothing, but yet when most people are complaining about the mugginess I find myself somewhat delighted by the moist air. Then summer actually ends, can you believe that. It barely shows its head and then it disappears into fall. Leaves actually change colors and fall from the the trees.

I think the Lord is preparing me for a change of some sort. Obviously big changes will come this fall when law school starts. But generally when something begins to annoy me, the Lord is preparing me for something. My companions, no matter how wonderful they were (or weren't) they would seriously annoy me right before one of us was to be transferred. Same thing when I was getting ready to leave an area my superhuman patience that has become my trademark (syke) wore really thin. 'And there are more examples, but I don't want to expose all my weaknesses...So who knows just some insight into my life...

Loved your post. Hmmm, seasons...
This year we have had a short spurt of Spring weather, it hasn't even broke a 100 yet..very unusual...

You are very intuitive to recognize the signs of change in your life..

Sounds like you are getting antsy to move on and get started in your new phase of life.

So happy for you.

Love ya
