My Mom is the same way. Autumn brings her down. WAY down, sometimes. My girlchild is the same way, too.

I have always, from the time I was a kid, loved autumn and winter. I feel SO much better when the air is crisp and the leaves are multi-colored and yes, that anticipation of snow is in the air.

I have a large jar candle named "Autumn Afternoon". I bought it last spring so I could light it and think of fall.:)

I know I'm WAY in the minority on this. What can I say???;^)

Fall is my favorite season, too. It makes me happy.

My granddaughter age nine is named Summer...

[Mr. Mulliner]

Did you know I spent a summer in Wisconsin? It was 1977, the year I graduated from high school. I left western Nebraska and spent the summer working in the kitchen at a camp in Wisconsin.

It was a hot, humid summer and I spent most of my days leaning over a steaming sink washing pots and pans. Thanks to our baker, though, I managed to gain about 10 lbs. that summer.

[Mr. Mulliner]

I used to hate autumn because it was the beginning of school. That was reason enough to despise it.

But my mom has always liked autumn best and now I understand why. Summers here in Tennessee and in western Nebraska where I grew up are just too darned hot to enjoy. Autumn weather comes as such a welcome relief from the summer heat and everything else about it is so welcome.

I feel my mood, if anything, is lifted by autumn.

I have always, from the time I was a kid, loved autumn and winter. I feel SO much better when the air is crisp and the leaves are multi-colored and yes, that anticipation of snow is in the air.

I feel the same way. I love fall and winter. I love the smell of the air.
