Oops....
I haven’t written since Fest,
have I?
My excuse is always that so much happens there that I get overwhelmed when I try to tell you
about it; I just don’t know where to start. (If you're wondering? It was a good season
for me. And I learned a lot about myself, as always.)
Perhaps I should hunt down my notebook, the one in which I jot down EVERYTHING that happens there so I don't forget, and then take the time to pen an entry for each day of the show, highlighting all the incredible magic that occurs there at Mayfaire.
Because then perhaps I can describe for once just how incredibly overwhelming (and overstimulating) a season there can be. And it starts like a storm First Weekend, and there’s no time to recover
until the whole dang crazy tempest is over for the season.
And then by the time I’m ‘myself’
again, my glorious October is almost over. Halloween is just seconds away and
I’m unprepared! And then trick-or-treating comes, goes, and is gone for the
year and I’m too tired to stay awake until midnight to savor the last little
pumpkin spice (and pomegranate) bits, and the next day it’s like ‘anything Halloween’ is poison
to me. Like anything Christmas-y is the day after Christmas….
But I love the grays
and browns and introspection of November just as much as I love the fiery
colors of October. And as long as the snow stays away until December I’ll at
least have a few weeks of Dark Autumn to enjoy.
So here’s to November. And to the days of Dark Autumn.
And thanks for reading. It feels
good to write to you again.
