Adventures in Vacationing
Summer is slowly slipping away and Fall is coming into town. Since its getting to be Fall, that means its Apple Festival time in Ellijay! So what does that mean boys and girls? It means Katie and her family are going to be gone next weekend. We are even taking Grayson along for the ride as well. We plan on visiting the Apple Festival and then going to an orchard where we can pick our own apples and so Grayson can visit the petting zoo there. Also, we are going to take the little guy to the pumpkin patch since I think he will love it. Grayson is getting independent and walking all on his own so well that I can just picture him waddling from pumpkin to pumpkin. My family is all about getting our vacation on as long as its in the form of a cabin or beach house. We once played around with the idea of renting an RV with 5th wheel insurance so we could travel around the USA and sight see and such. The only downside is the idea of eight people crammed into a tiny RV. No thanks. We have a big house and still feel confined so the idea of all of us in an RV scares the living heck out of me! So hopefully this time next week I will be relaxing in a cabin up in Blue Ridge having fun with my family!

Fuzzy Wuzzy Brain
As I mentioned before, I have been sick lately and it has taken its toll on my body. I slept most of the day away and am busy preparing for tonight’s political science test. See, I feel so awful, I thought yesterday was Thursday instead of Wednesday! I don’t know where my brain is getting to these days. A downside of me being sick is its hard for me to concentrate long enough to write up the articles I need to. I don’t have enough brain capacity to even write an article on acne treatments that really work. Doesn’t that tell you how crappy I feel? I think its time to go back to the doctor!

Raccoon Eyes
For the past two weeks, I have been feeling very craptastic. I have tried to do my best to go to class, complete all my work, and study for tests but everything is slowly taking a toll on my body. It hurts to move and I feel like I have been ran over by a mac truck. I am tired all the time and thanks to me feeling so awful, I have huge dark circles under my eyes. I look like a raccoon. I feel like instead of blogging, I need to be out buying an eye cream for dark circles. If I can make it through today, I have a break until Monday night. I know I can do this, I am a lot stronger than I think!!

The Little Things
As I was washing my face with my new acne wash last night, I looked next to me to where my thirteen month old was sitting on the bathroom counter “brushing his teeth” and it occurred to me, this is it, this is love. That one special moment of seeing him grin and giggle back at me as I washed my face was just one of the moments he has completely captured my heart. I never knew you could love someone so much and be willing to do anything and everything for them. When he hurts, I hurt for him and wish nothing more than to take the hurt and pain away and when he is happy, my heart soars. The love that both his daddy and I share for him has brought us closer as a family and even closer together as a married couple. Grayson has managed to intertwine everyone together in perfect harmony when he is around. He also has the ability to wrap everyone around his little chubby fingers just by being his happy little self. I swear, God broke the mold when they made this little guy. I just hope his future siblings are the same way!

Holy grannies!
One thing that I seriously stand firm on is that getting old is a part of life. I do not plan on being one of those people that chase my younger years throughout my older years. I do not want to obsess over looking and acting younger only because I am scared to admit to the fact I have gotten older. I plan on embracing my elder years when they get here because I can honestly say I have no regrets in my life. I really find it sad how so many people are obsessed with the whole glitz and glam of life and trying to be someone or something they’re not, like younger. I saw a seventy year old woman yesterday at the grocery store dressed up like a teenager with her mini-skirt, stilettos, and low cut shirt. Also, she was sporting her belly button ring and lip piercing along with her bleached blond hair and tons of makeup. I was thoroughly embarrassed for her. I know that people have always wanted to look younger with the advancements of such products like hgh injections and such, but this lady took it to the extreme. Even though I find it sad to try to be younger when you obviously are not, at least do it with taste. If you are pushing seventy, there is no way in heck people will mistake you for a teenager. Also, I know this lady is seventy because she happens to be the GREAT-grandma of one of my old high school friends. Yes, I said GREAT grandma. Wow, I wonder what her great great grandchildren have to say about her!
