Back To Life. Back To Reality.

I heard this phrase over and over again over the course of the past weekend.

Summer. Is. Over.

Officially over.

Like, OVER, over.

I know, I know - I said in my last post that I was looking forward to fall and winter, which I am, but I am still sad that summer is gone. To be honest, I'm not even sure where the summer went. Looking back, Brian and I didn't go anywhere or really do anything together this summer.

Don't get me wrong, we had plenty to do - weddings, showers, baptisms, wedding planning, house crap, work crap, and on, and on, and on.....what we never really did this summer was to stop and smell the roses and exist in the moment. We unfortunately spent our summer checking off the boxes of our social and errand calendar.

I hate, actually I loathe, living life that way.

So starting tomorrow I'm starting fresh - vowing to savor and breathe in every moment of every day. I'm so bored with rushing through every event in order to get to the next event.

It's going to be a challenge because I usually plow full speed ahead through everything.

Not anymore.

Stop.

Breathe.

Enjoy.
