checking in

Whenever I'm behind on posting something, I get these great visions of myself making some coffee, getting settled in my chair, and expounding on something of great importance or sharing the happy little details of life recently.


However, lately when I've sat down all I've been able to think about is how it would only take a few more hours to clean out the storage room I've been working on for weeks, or how the light bulb in my closet needs changing, or getting out the fall decorations, or that I need to go over my list for the Fall Festival. ...or wondering if I should get out my winter clothes because yesterday it was in the low 50's but today it's in the 80's. What is life?

As I've mentioned before, it's hard for me to relax in the middle of disorder. It's a trait I'm working on, but with the weather as it's been, my room and closet are a bit chaotic. It makes me feel anxious just leaving it, and I truly enjoy throwing stuff out and simplifying my life. If it's unused, out it goes. 

This might be an odd thing to write about, but it's my life right now. There's a lot going on in the church side of my life, and in the home side, I'm having a great time Fall De-Cluttering. It's driving my family crazy, but I'm really enjoying it.
 
Anyway, all that to say that my mind has been on everything except writing recently. My pictures for September are scattered all over the place, and I'm still catching up with the fact that it's already October! I still jot down mental notes of articles I'm planning on writing, and another part to my Sweetness of the South series. But for the most part, I've been focusing on enjoying the changing seasons and making the most of my days.

So I apologize for the silence here recently, but next week looks to offer some time for a real post. For now, I hope you're having a happy Fall, and I'll be back soon with another post about who knows what! 

Thanks for sticking around!
