10 Reasons To NOT Be Sad That Summer Is Over:

In absolutely NO particular order:

  1. You can take the dog for a walk without breaking into a sweat!
  2. You can put your bathing suits away (if you’re self conscious like I am, it’s a relief!)
  3. You can stop buying sunblock until next summer ($$$).
  4. You can breathe in crisp fall air without sneezing your brains out.
  5. You can use your oven and stove top again without sweating while cooking.
  6. Your Con Ed bill won’t be so high without air conditioning costs!
  7. You can sleep in a little when you can because the sun isn’t up as early.
  8. Fireplace anyone?  
  9. Who doesn’t love wearing jeans with boots?
  10. Back to school for the kids.
