Why is that you don't see that much difference in the different times of the year like you used to? Exactly because our planets orbit is getting more and more of a perfect circle, but that's about to change once again.
Earth's orbit has always been fairly circular, with an insignificant deviation. The seasons change because it's tilted on its axis. The fact that the orbit is slightly elliptical contributes very little.
Also, I don't know where you live, but here we are seeing just as much difference in the seasons as we used to.
