Life now finds us beginning the 3rd week of college. You are probably wondering where the us comes in since James is doing all the school work. It just feels like I'm also going through everything too. We might be heading down to the southern part of the state two Sundays out of the month. James was asked to help fill the pulpit at a church that is looking for a pastor. We figured we can try it to see if his schedule will allow and also if the drive won't be to much. I'm not sure how long he will be able to do the balancing act of full time student, working and preaching. I have to admit that I am kind of looking forward to it. Maybe after the first 2 hour drive I'll change my mind.
The days are a little cooler then they were. Only in the 80s and 90s now but the nights are nice and cool. I love to feel the cold air and be able to bury under my blankets. I think I can smell Fall in the air. The mums are being sold at the nursery and all the fall decorations are out. I've always loved this time of year (Halloween not so much). Before I know it I'll be roasting a turkey for Thanksgiving. That is James' favorite holiday. I think it is because he can eat (in the past it also meant see family) and he doesn't have to buy any gifts. Last year was a very difficult holiday since it was just the 3 of us but this year we will have family here!!! If you can't tell I'm a little excited.
Lacey has been acting very strange lately. Sometimes I'm worried that she is going to die. She is 7 now so it would be on the young side of the projected life span. I can't even put my finger on exactly what is different but James has noticed it too. I've been trying to prepare myself for it but if it does happen I'm sure I'll be a mess. Its amazing how attached you can get to a dog.
Well I have enjoyed this Labor Day at home. I just wish it wouldn't be coming to an end so quickly. Tomorrow it is back at it.
