I wish a picture could capture the sheer beauty of our weather today. This morning it was 62, clear and breezy. The air felt cleaner than usual; we breathed it down into our lungs, reveling in this brief respite from the heat. They say the weekend will be warm again but for now, we have a glimpse into Fall that is right around the corner.

I sent the kids to school in pants for the first time and it reminded me how much I love Fall and Fall shopping. Soon as I get paid, I’m buying some Halloween/Thanksgiving decorations, which warm my heart in a way I certainly could never describe.

This weather makes me worry less, as silly as that sounds. I live in a world where I think that if I worry enough about something, that will somehow fix the problem. Clearly this makes no sense whatsoever but in my mind, it helps me to cope with issues.  As the weather turned cooler, I somehow lost track of the little nagging problems floating around my head, junking it up. The cool air was  a cleanse for my brain; rehab for the soul, if you will.

My class was an epic fail, I have a weird dizzying headache, and no intentions of getting any work done. BUT, I feel giddy and light at the thought of the changing season. It’s an odd dichotomy of emotions; I’m prone to getting this way but today seems to off balance. It could be because of the weather that I want to do nothing at work. Wouldn’t it be nice to just go home and lay on a blanket in the grass and just listen? Maybe just stare at the unbelievably blue sky and think? God, that would be the epitome of awesome right now.

Alas, I have many tasks to accomplish before my day is over.
