Fall is upon us friends. It's here. I can feel it in the air and see it in the changing colors on the trees. Oh man. My arms can't wait to be in long sleeves and sweaters.

Yesterday was a true Sunday in every sense of the word. I went to church with Jessica and Betsy. Then our afternoon was filled with outdoors things and pictures. We talked a lot about the future. What our lives will be like, our kids, our men (which was a main topic.) This is really the prime time in our lives, when we're not bound by jobs, families and real life obligations. This is the time.

I enjoy their company immensely. It was a true sunday with true friends.

On another note, we listened to the new Kings of Leon cd. It is so good. It's on repeat on my iPod now. So good. Get it.

Yay for lazy days. These are welcomed. Days where I can sleep in and wake up fully rested. Days where I can leisurely do my homework and relax the rest of the day. Days where I can fully enjoy a shower. MHHHMMM. This was today.

My mind has been elsewhere lately. Like a cloud of haze covering my eyes. I'm distracted.

I've come to embrace the change that I have been emmersed in. It's here and there's no going back now, only forward. Can't change the past, can only deal with the future.

What can you do?

I've been saying that a lot lately... What can you do?

This weekend I went to Chicago. What an amazing time!

Sarah and I ventured out to the windy city on Friday and met up with her friends, Hailey and Chrissie on Saturday. We shopped like girls do and walked in the intense rain. I had my first experience in a taxi cab. I am on of those people who likes to be in control in certain situations and in this one... I was not in control. The man drove like a maniac. Needless to say, I had a ball. Sarah's friends (who she actually knows through Paige) are amazing. I like them. I will definitely be going back to Chicago again.

Yesterday, Sarah and I left Chicago at a decent time (10:30) and didn't make it even an hour away when we got stuck in massive traffic. We're talking moving a half a mile in 1 hour. So we sat in traffic for 3.5 hours. Our trip was suppossed to only be 8 hours, but it turned into a 13 hour extravaganza. Even though we spent so much time in the car, we didn't fight. We laughed. We sang. We talked. No fighting. No drama. It's good to have friends like that. I appreciate our friendship.

Of course, there are more details, but I have to read a children's book for my Children's Lit class.
