I’d never pass the test

I’ve heard tests are frequently administered to show the progress of dementia. I think i’m ok, but I would have a problem if I was asked to quickly state what season we’re in. Here in Florida I lose track of the time of the year. I know it’s April (soon to be May) but what season are we heading into? Sure I could figure it out.

We always went back to Michigan the first week of May (after the Kentucky Derby which is the first Saturday of the month). We’d do our return trip in October, or late September.

Since I now stay inside most of the time, I don’t really don’t care about the weather. I am certainly aware that summer here is horribly hot and since the peak of summer has always been June, July and August, I need to avoid those months. I do know that December is generally one of the coldest months here because that’s when Kelly comes to visit.

The hurricane season officially begins on June 1, and ends on November 30. It gets lots of hype so there’s no way you can miss those warnings.

I do love Florida weather because most of the time it’s not extreme.

I’ve been watching “The Incredible Dr. Pol” and he is in Michigan, near where I lived. I see the lousy winter weather in his winter episodes and I don’t miss it.

So back to the title of this post, most of the time, I would fail if someone asked me to quickly state what season we’re in.

On first quick guess I’d say it’s Spring because the Spring break kids just left Florida, and lots of the snowbirds are heading north.
