Time For A Slow Down

This morning while I was outside with Marni, the wind picked up, stirring all the dirt and leaves around.  Across the road from the back of my apartment is an old house with a huge tree in the front yard.  A ton of leaves started flowing off of it, in the prettiest steady pattern.  Then I could hear the clock tower chiming from the university.  It was one of those moments where you just stop and take it in.  I love when that happens.  When something catches your total attention and makes you forget about the rest of the world, even if it's just for 30 seconds. 

After working so many days in a row and not making time for life, it was a nice reminder, a Godwink perhaps.

Wake Me Up When September Ends

I can't believe it's already October!  I also can't believe how cold I am!  It's so chilly outside.  I even went out and bought a space heater because I'm a total cold weather wimp.  I love this time of year, but it's a reminder that winter is on it's way and I reeeally don't like winter.  But this year I'm not going to dread it coming.  You never know when winter might bring something marvelous.  Fall might, too.
