Goodbye September

I will be glad to see September go. October is one of my favorite months of the year. Every October since I have been down in Florida, I have made it a point to get back up to Michigan for Girls Weekend with my three best girl friends. In years past we have gone to Cedar Point, but this year we are going to Chicago.

The city of Chicago had my heart years ago when I was just a teenager driving there for concerts and to go to stores like The Alley for any cool goth gear I could find. It was the go-to place for little mini vacations because it always had so much to offer. A month before I got pregnant with Pink Marble I broke the news to TGIM that I was going to be moving there. I wanted to experience life in a city and I knew Chicago was going to be the place for me. But, then SURPRISE, pregnant! And, my dreams of moving came to a screeching halt and the only moving I did was a move from Northville to Clarkston to move in with TGIM. And history was made.... Ok, that sounded lame but anyway, my point is I am excited to go back with three of the awesomestestest people I can think to go with. Also, the icing on the cake is that I get to see my friend Megan who I haven't seen in quite a few years. So all in all, it's going to be a fun time.

I am also welcoming October because when we lived in Michigan it was my favorite time of the year. I loved the change in the seasons. That is something I miss terribly being down in Florida. And, Halloween. My favorite holiday!!! I think we are going to start decorating on Sunday. The Marble's will love that! They love getting the bins out and setting everything up.

Also, I have spent the better part of September in a huge funk. There is too much drama going around and to be able to get away and go be with people who are happy, funny and fun to be around is going to be a much needed remedy for the September Blues.

I'm hoping to get in a few more good, steady runs before the end of the month too.
