| CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO SEASONS |
On the Tuesday after Labor Day (Labor Day Tuesday) my cousin asks me to post a word to describe my day. I usually think such FB requests are scams but she verifies her identity by sharing a "cousin" code word, so I play and post. I pick "confusing" for my word of the day. Why? Tuesday is just plain confused about what it is-summer or fall.
Labor Day weekend ends and we plunge into fall overnight. My Starbucks
http://www.starbucks.com/store/15640/offers its fall lattes to customers who are attired in tank tops and flip flops. It is a rainy/sunny day- remnants of Hurricane Isaac. Some folks wear slickers, others tank tops and flip flops. I have all three. Confusing.

The US Open tennis starts and stops. Rain threatens then takes over allowing only a few matches. Attendees are confused. Who is playing, who is not? and in which stadium? Do we leave our seats or huddle under umbrellas and hoods?

| HAVE TO HIDE FROM THE RAIN |
Last week it was a summer US Open, hot and blazing, this week the US Open is in fall rainy and dark.
Some TV shows have their fall debut. Kelly has a new co-host Michael Strahan. The View is new. Not all shows are back. Some still on summer vacation. Confusing
School is back in session. Not for all though. The teachers are back first; the kids return today.
Autumn acorns fall, squirrels feast, Liam stalks and jumps and hangs, hoping,
CVS is decorated with items labeled "fall harvest" this covers now and also might extend through Halloween and Thanksgiving with some witches and turkeys inserted here and there.
A beautiful fall mural at my Starbucks done by one of the many gifted staff members.
Confusing. My word of Tuesday.
In a good mixed up way. Happy/summer/fall.
