Here's a Suggestion ...

  
     Go take a look at the current edition of the Blogging Boomers Carnival, brought to you by Laura Lee Carter at the Midlife Crisis Queen. She points the way to some of the interests of her fellow Baby Boomers -- from meditation to experimentation to the election.

     And get this:  One Baby Boomer is being so bold as to list nine reasons why she doesn't like September. You may agree or disagree with her; but you will definitely be entertained. And she's right about at least one thing:  all those songs about September -- like Wake Me Up When September Ends, September Song, The September of My Years -- do tend to be pretty mournful melodies. Still, I do like this one . . .

September, a wonderful month and nobody can persuade me differntly. David's birthday 9/10; my daughter (first child) born 9/23/61; my first granddaughter 9/29/88. My first and oldest grandson born 9/17/2001. School starts, it turns cooler. Love it. Dianne

I love September in Minnesota! I can stop watering the garden and lawn. I can stop eating all those tomatoes that will finally succumb to the frost. School starts...order returns to the universe. Air conditioning is off, but we don't need the furnace yet...open windows are the rule. Love the air. The birds are very active before they leave for warmer climates...lots to see in the backyard. Leaves start turning. I can wear jeans everyday and put away the shorts. What is not to love? That might be 9 reasons to "love" September!
Oh yeah, lest I forget, the apples start coming in...love the fresh crop of apples! I'm in heaven in September.

I love September, and if memory serves Earth Wind and Fire have a fabulously bouncy song called "September."
