* a warm cup of coffee is the perfect companion on a cold and drizzly day.

* Fall is slowly becoming my favorite season (sorry summer). I'm falling in love with the cool, mild weather, and beautiful colors of nature.

* I love how everyone is decorating outside for Halloween and fall {another reason why I'm loving this season.}

* Dear spiders, I know it's getting chilly outside, but please don't come inside my house. I really dislike killing you, but I can't stand the thought of going to bed and not knowing where you disappeared to...

* When will Lindsey Lohan finally get her act together? It doesn't matter how many people want/ are trying to help her, she has to want to help herself first.

* Why won't these flyaway hairs stay down?! I've tried everything I could think of, and it works for about 5 seconds, then *ping* they pop back up again.

* Britney Spears is on Glee tonight! I'm so pumped. It reminds me of the time when my friends and I did a dance to 'Baby One More Time' for our eighth grade talent show. we learned the dance from the video, and bought schoolgirl uniforms to wear to complete the look. :)

* I truly feel blessed to have a job where I make a difference in someone's life. after seeing previews for this, I know I'm in the right field, and that I can't help everyone (though I wish I could help all those kids), I can do my best to help the kids in my classroom.

* naps are the best. when I told my students that adults still take naps, and that I did just the other day, my one student looked at me like I was crazy and then asked me who was home with me. I love their sweet innocence.

Never Alone

I always find it amazing when I come across words from another blogger that are exactly what I needed to hear at that very moment. below is a prime example:

What hard experience have you ever made through alive on your own? Think about it. The last challenging event in your life -- maybe it was a death in the family, a sports injury, a difficult course in school, a breakup. Were you alone? All of these things can be really hard and heavy. And there are so SO many other twists and turns in life that I could not possibly list them all. Life can hurt. We know this. But the other thing I know is that I have never made it through any of these experiences without the compassion of another person. I have never made it through without another being, someone outside myself, pouring love into me. The plain truth of it is, we all need somebody. From the very beginning, man was not meant to be alone. Instead, we were created to be in relationships. That yearning you have to connect to people? -- it is natural and it is good. Don't shy away from it. I think too often we fear vulnerability and we close ourselves off to the world. Be somebody's somebody.

Weekend Day Dreams

ahhh, it's finally Friday! This week just seemed to inch by and the weekend could not get here fast enough. I feel exhausted and I'm starting to realize that my go-go-go lifestyle is finally catching up with me. I find myself day dreaming of a weekend getaway (I'm googling flight prices as I type this). Somewhere fun and exciting, far away from the hustle and bustle of every day life. now if only I could be the girl in these pictures...enjoying the beauty of a holiday on the coast of an Italian town...

What are you dreaming of this weekend?
