I peeked out the window and checked for the sun; this is how I get the weather report in spring and fall, and it’s often misleading.

One overcast day I bundled Gracie in her monkey sweater and found myself sweating underneath three layers. It was probably 50, but it felt more like 80 with all our ridiculous clothing.

Only a day before, though, I was hugging myself and urging her along, “come on Gracie go pee-pee, go pee-pee!” I stood shivering in my sweatshirt and felt guilty about my poor pibble; she was in nothing but her birthday suit. The sun was shinning bright that day… uselessly, I might add.

All that meteorological confusion is gone now. No more of your trickery, Sun. I don’t have to look out the window to guess how it’ll feel. It’s effin freezing out… probably from now on.

I saved this leaf for last, with the hope that all that fiery red might fool you into feeling warm the way the sun always seems to fool me.
