Monday, August (the "hottest" month of the year) 28th, 2006:
I have searched the attic and pulled down all our boxes of winter clothing, searched through it, and put it all away in the kids' dressers.
Tuesday, August (still the "hottest" month of the year) 29th, 2006:
Tank tops are passe. I wore the first turtleneck of the winter season coupled with a nice long sweater. This was not the first turtleneck of the season because it was the first cold day - no, I was cold before, just stubbornly holding out for summer's return. The winter stuff is unpacked. I've given up - until next year.
Wednesday, August (hot? not!) 30th, 2006:
A friend stopped by briefly during a 5 minute sun break. She said she thinks summer is coming back. Just a couple hours later it was hailing. Meanwhile, the winter coats are hanging in the closet and I've just found the last of the hats and scarves. For lunch, I had a cup of hot cocoa.
Thursday, August (not holding out for summer's return) 31st, 2006:
Got out a large blue rubbermaid bin. All the pretty little sleeveless dresses are now in it. I'll ask Kirk to take it to the attic tonight. Gotta run, the tea is brewing.
Friday, September (Indian summer is here!) 1st, 2006:
It is 25C! It is warm! The girls wore skirts without tights. I was warm in my sweater. We opened windows to warm the house. Summer is back!
Saturday, September 2nd, 2006
Still warm enough to lull me into a false sense of security. Ironed sundresses and didn't pack them in the summer box... just in case.

Reality has set in. It is once again cold and raining without breaks. Oh well. I just bought a pretty new umbrella. Now I have a reason to show it off.
