It’s Fall Break. 2 weeks off.
I couldn’t have needed it any more than I already did.
Back on July 31st I would have told you I hated our balanced calendar and going back to school when it was still so warm out. Now, I would tell you how much I love it.
We have no plans, unfortunately, because we had to cancel a trip out west due to a late harvest.
However, the “no plans” has turned into a nice, relaxing do what I want when I want staycation.
First, at 8:00 a.m. on Monday morning Shiloh’s trip to the vet. She’s never been before. Only the Humane Society to get her shots and be spayed. I think she knew that as soon as we put her harness on her and then put her in the car she was going some place she probably didn’t want to.
 |
| She seemed a bit nervous. |
 |
| While waiting in the room she could barely sit still and watched the shadows under the door after sniffing the entire room. |
 |
| Then, we were told she was “a bit overweight” and she was disheartened. |
 |
| So we decided to start taking walks when we got home. |
Due to the rain over the weekend I was fortunate to get some time in with my guy as well.
As soon as the fields dry up I’m sure I’ll be spending a lot of time alone again.
 |
| After our walk she was quite pooped…and slept most of the day. |
The rest of day 1 consisted of breakfast somewhere new down the road (Sunrise Cafe….yummy), shopping for new clothes and craft items to conquer Pinterest, and a home cooked meal for dinner.
Day 2 I spent the day with my best friend organizing and getting some things ready for baby #2. We got a lot accomplished while her MIL had baby #1. Once baby #1 came home it was a little difficult to get much done because she’s so darn cute and hard to resist.
 |
| She regressed a little bit as we were going through baby clothes. |
 |
| I learned that when you’re pregnant it’s difficult to bend down and pick things up. Sometimes you have to get a grabber thingy to help you out. I laughed a bit. She said something like, “I can’t wait until you’re pregnant and understand.” |
 |
| We talked about how as a mom she’s doing all those things she said she would never do. But, how could you say no to this face? |
 |
| Her little one does truly love herself and seeing her gorgeous little face on the phone. |
 |
| After Day 2 we got another 2 miles in late at night. I hate how dark it’s getting so quickly. |
All in all the first two week days of Fall Break have been quite successful.
And for day 3 it’s 11 am, I’m still in my pajamas drinking coffee, and writing to all of you.
Life is rough,
