It's Labor Day weekend and I'm celebrating by striking the set of summer.Truth be told, I started taking down and putting away most of the summer décor earlier this week. I yanked the seasonal display of silk flowers from my not-to-be-sullied-by-fire fireplace, swapped light green coasters for claret colored ones, and put away my cats' pink and white Hello Kitty bowls.
Today, I brought flowered summer skirts and light linen pants to the cleaners. On my drive home I noticed leaves starting to change color on one precocious tree. Tomorrow, I plan to scrub clean and pack away most (not all) of my flip flops. I'll carry armfuls of purple, orange, and yellow silk mums up from the basement to start setting the stage for autumn.
I'm so done with sun. Up with fall.
