You know summer is over when the sandals you bought in the spring are starting to stink. Yes, that's a bit gross, but it's the truth. As sure as the will be an autumnal equinox, your "new" sandals will stink after 4 or 5 months of wear. It has nothing to do with the cleanliness of the wearer, nor does it matter what your sandals step into; they will start to stink when summer is over. As a rule, I throw my sandals away on the first garbage day in October.
You know fall is here when you see the older women wearing their fancy sweatshirts. By "fancy" I mean the sweathshirts with things embossed, embroidered, or painted on them. These sweatshirts usually have a fake collar sewn in, to give the impression of the layered look. These can usually be seen at bingo halls, flea markets, and bowling alleys after the end of September.
You know winter is almost here when you see the coats at the bus stops. Not just at school bus stops, but at bus stops for public transporation as wel. I don't mean just jackets; I mean big coats - big, puffy down-filled coats. Keep in mind that the majority of these coats will never make it home the first day they are worn; they will be left hanging on coat racks and on the backs of chairs by their absent-minded owners.

You mean I'm supposed to throw away these $50 sandals..........who cares if they smell.............
Remember the sweatshirt party your Mom had for your Aunt? They had it at your all's house, and it was sometime in the fall, because you were still off from work from your wreck and foot surgery. My Mom still has the sweatshirts she bought at the party, LOL. She got a couple of Christmas-themed ones, and one with fall leaves on it that I swear to Hannah she had on the other evening when I stopped by.
