End of summer.

Tonight, in my mind, is the end of summer.  
We've been away, we've had company, and i've enjoyed yet another wonderful end-of-summer girls' weekend away at a serene and heavenly lake.  I have taken my daughters swimming and M has attended camp.  We have grilled and sipped many a cold beer.  We've spent wonderful amounts of time with family and friends.  All that summer can entail has been savored!  


And now i am ready to move on.  i am ready to start eating well and head back to the gym.  I am ready to buy back to school supplies, and a new lunch box.  i am ready to (hopefully sooner than later) begin to wear jeans and sweaters again!


So, my dear friend summer, while i have enjoyed every minute of your days, i am having to say good-bye. i need to move on.  so long; farewell, and thanks for all the memories!
