SUMMER IS OFFICIALLY GOING TO BE HERE TOMORROW AND HOW ARE YOU CELEBRATING????

I was just reminded by one of my Patreon members and friends, DC, that tomorrow is the first day of summer, and I am SO EXCITED! I live in Tampa FL, so, it’s basically always summer here haha!

BUT there is something still so magical and fun about the first day of summer.

As a kid, when summer vacation finally came around, I remember the hot sunny days full of playing in trees, building forts, swimming, making dirt soup, catching fire flys, and staying up super late. I remember the ice cream man coming down the street, sleep overs at our house or my cousins, going to movies, and riding my bike for hours every single day. Everything tasted and felt better in the summer.

My birthday is also in the summer, July 13th, so of course that entire month was always a big celebration!

Honestly though, the more I think about it, I wish that we could keep this playful and fun attitude year around. Everyone seems to be happier and healthier. The world seems lighter. Stress is lessened. It all just …is good!

So then what is the change?

I believe the change in the seasons and the focus back on school for children sets everyone into a sort of “ stricter” state of mind. I see the benefit of it. I do. I see how this is beneficial to get back on track and have structure, but why the super change?

I would love your thoughts on this! Please comment if you think you could elaborate on the post summer blues.

BUT FOR NOW….GET READY TO PARTY BECAUSE SUMMER IS HERE BABY!!!!!!!
