Life did it again. It's OCTOBER?
Last time I looked we were closing in on the end of July, back to school commercials were starting to show up on the tele, and we were all thoroughly suffering from a severe case of Cabin Fever.
Now there are candy corns everywhere, pumpkins are popping up on porches around town and leaves are falling... Christmas decorations are lining store shelves and the weatherman said snow is on its way by the end of the week.
And wow, my 'Bag of Skittles' has become a fountain. As each person and my activities are color coded on my calendar - there are weeks in which my schedule is a colorful rainbow of 'fun'.
It's been an awfully colorful fall! Now that we are six weeks into the semester, things have finally settled down enough that I have been able to carve out a few minutes each week to put pen to paper... I hope, who knows, in the Olson's household, sometimes we are surfing the wave of chaos and holding on tight until the weekend.
It's moments of realization like this that I realize that a 'pause' button would be nice and I'm ever so thankful for coffee!
