It's Fall now

Well, I see by all of the bags of leaves that my parents have raked up from my yard over the last week or so that it is indeed Fall. My favorite season, the season where I can wear jeans and a sweatshirt again.
I have been 'under the weather' for the last week or so and even took a sick day from work Thursday.
Last weekend though, before I got sick I was in LaCrosse, Wisconsin visiting my college roommate and celebrating OktoberFest. It was a great time and I had a lot of good beer and remember the whole weekend! I am getting too old to drink to forget the happenings! I am not so good at hangovers anymore.
September was a busy month. School was in full swing and my job is going well. I have some days where I question why the hell I do what I do, but I always go back the next day. I also have all new carpet on my main and lower levels of my house. It is wonderful and the house feels more like 'mine' now. My mom went on shopping frenzies and is helping to decorate room by room. It's a lot of frickin' work and I have been priming the wood panneling downstairs today and will look for some color samples tomorrow.
Kickball also wrapped up in September and our team made it through the season and we are all still friends.

Well, that's about it for now. Not much else new. I will post more when something exciting happens or when I get some photos of the redecoration!

Hey there stranger! I thought I would be WAY behind on your blog because I haven't checked for months, but I'm not. It seems kind of quiet on your end. My mom said your house looks great! Can't wait to see you. Love and miss you.

Your favorite cousin! (shhh...don't tell anyone)
