That's where this post is coming from.

Retailers are merchandising their fall looks, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has come and gone, and everyone is over the heat of summer.

Yes, I know.  How cliche of me to add Strawberry Fields as the soundtrack to my short film.  The Mr is out of town (one word: football,) and I've dubbed this week Potty Training Week.  My imagination has been diminished.......
