I love this crazy, tragic, almost magic, awful, beautiful life

That title pretty much sums up my life in the past two weeks... it has been a whirlwind! School started and that itself is enough to wear me down. The transition from my be-lazy, do-nothing summer to the hustle of classes just about got the best of me! (Which is why I haven't posted lately.) Work has also been busy and since I am taking two night classes this semester I drive home at night some days... even more reason to be tired :) BUT, this week has already started off on a more low-tempo pace. Thank God! I can't handle being so stressed for a long period of time. I am looking forward to going to the tanning bed after work then going home for an afternoon of TV watching and relaxing. So there's my explanation for my lack of blogging. Now to an update in my life...

Labor Day weekend was absolutely beautiful! I went shopping with Mom, read some books, and mainly enjoyed the beautiful weather. I'm waiting for it to make a permanent return for Fall. :) I have noticed that the leaves are starting to change a little so I know it's just around the corner! Last week didn't consist of anything but school... blah! This past weekend I spent a lot of time with Baylie (who is still growing like a weed) and Nathan. Our time together lately has been very low-key and uneventful. Since we don't see each other Monday-Thursday (which is hard) it's nice to just catch up on the weekends. We've always had a relationship where we can have a great time doing pretty much nothing. I think it's because we're both pretty laid back people.

I was able to wake up Saturday morning and remember 9/11. Do you remember where you were? I do. I was in elementary school and we were called into our homerooms. My teacher at the time is one of the best I've ever had and I remember the look on her face. I just knew something was wrong. We prayed and had a moment of silence. Such a fitting thing to do. I wasn't old enough at the time to actually comprehend what was going on so it's important for me to watch the footage each year... it helps me remember the tragedy our country went through. I am so fortunate to live in this country. I hope you were able to take some time and remember that day.

I hope the past couple weeks have been great for all of you! As a sidenote I would like to add that my blogging patterns will be out of whack now that school has started... I promise your life will go on ;)

Laugh about something today! :)
