Cooler weather (eventually).
The start of another school year.
And, of course, football season!
For me, however, fall is my least favorite season. For one, I'm not a big fan of cooler weather. As I've previously stated in my postings, I'm one who actually ENJOYS the heat and humidity of our south Louisiana summers.
Call me crazy (like THAT hasn't been done before)!!!
But it's true. I'll repeat it just to make sure you didn't miss it:
I enjoy the heat and humidity of our south Louisiana summers.
So there.
Secondly, although I do enjoy football as much as most of you, the arrival of football season marks the beginning of another LONG sports season for me in my job with LSU Athletics.
I have now begun my 22nd year with LSU Athletics - and all that comes with it.
Work.
Travel.
Long hours.
Time away from my family.
Lots of working nights.
And weekends.
LOTS of weekends!
And, most importantly, the start of another sports season marks the end of my golf. The 3rd week of August each summer I play in a tournament that effectively ends my golf for the year.
Once that tournament is over with I reluctantly carry my golf bag, shoes, hats and other assorted golf paraphernalia upstairs to the closet of one of our guest rooms.
And there it resides until the following May when things finally slow down at work and I can once again get back out on the golf course.
May, June, July and August are my favorite months.
The sports season is winding down.
The heat and humidity are back.
And my lonely golf clubs are calling my name and inviting me back out to the golf course.
Where I belong.
May can't get here soon enough !!
Until next time...
People always say December is busy, but I think fall and Back to School is the busiest! When May begins to roll around the weather is pleasant, things seem to slow down, & life always feels good. Still plenty on my To-do list, its just a feeling. Thx, Kev
ReplyDeleteYeah, I guess it's interesting that different people have different "takes" on their favorite time of the year. We all lead different lives and we all have to plan our schedules accordingly. I know for people with younger kids, the start of fall is a VERY busy time for them - but they're generally happy to have their kids back in school following a long summer!
