the smell of it is in the air

Yesterday I wore my new burnt orange pants and a top with 3/4 length sleeves to celebrate the gorgeous 70something degree weather. Today, another pair of pants, another long sleeved shirt. Its going back up into the 80s for the rest of week, but dipping back down again early next week. Fall is on the horizon and I love it. I can smell it in the air, especially at night when I run. A crispness, an earthiness that wasn't there just a week or two ago. I suck it in like life fuel.

I know I've spoken of my longing to be starting school right now, and while that isn't happening, I do have another wonderfully fun adventure starting this week. You're looking at the newest contributor to Connected Mom! I'll be posting there every other Monday, and honestly I couldn't be more excited. I've read and admired this blog for a long time, so I'm thrilled to be a part of it. Wish me luck and let me know if there is anything you want to see me talk about here or there.

For now, back to work. I'm suffering from work-malaise right now and am not working very effectively. What I can't manage in quality right now, I'll just have to make up with quantity. So, off I go.
