My dear readers, I am going to be taking a small little blogging break. It may last a week, maybe more… I just need a little time to get my life organized and focus on a few things before coming back here. Just don’t go too far because I promise I won’t be gone long…

Have a restful weekend.
Sigh. Oh. My. Goodness. I am exhausted. Life has been going a hundred miles per hour and I feel the need to just sit down and breathe. This is the first weekend since July that I have absolutely nothing planned… and I’ve had to fight to keep it that way. I don’t want to do

September, we meet again!
My goodness! How am I already eight days late in posting this? It’s crazy that the summer is ending and we are getting ready for the autumn months… my favorite time of year! August was definitely the very best month of this year yet. However, September will be pretty awesome as well since I’ll be
