So lately I have...
...failed to call my sister 3 days in a row. #oops ...been a crossing guard in the pouring rain when it is 35 degrees outside. GROSS. ...spent $15 on candy - no, not for halloween. ...decided to be Leslie Knope for halloween, and then found up we aren't allowed to dress up. ...started to emotionally disconnect from the middle school I'm working at. ...been hating the above emotional disconnection. ...felt anxiety & guilt over the fact that all other student teachers seem to be doing MORE than me. ...felt immense joy & pride when a teacher that I'm working with sat me down to tell me that I am the best student teacher they have ever seen at this school. WHAAA??!! Thanks, God. ...coffee.coffee.coffee. ...ALL THE BLANKETS! oh wait, I'm too warm. NO BLANKETS. Wait. ALL THE BLANKETS! ...black. bean. burgers. Worth Bobby's mocking words at lunch because I'm a food hippie. (Clearly Bobby doesn't know about the $15 I spent on candy. Whatever.) ...been a cryin' a lot. ...been a huggin' a lot. ...been a prayin'... not enough. But still kind of a lot. LORD Jesus, heal my broken soul. Every day. I need it. Amen.

I am thankful for...
...Alexi, who reminds me to be thankful. ...random teachers in Denver that make awesome youtube videos about adding decimals. ...black beans filling my freezer, crockpot, and stomach. ...Pastor Jeruld and his insane passion for his congregation, the Church, and prayer. ...place value disks, because those guys are just really helpful! ...yo-ga. ...Monday night date nights and a safe place to talk openly and positively about our marriage. ...a printer. And not having to walk down 4 flights of stairs to get to it! ...nights alone where I can just get homework done, even if it means my man being out & about. #monstertruckcake #sotacky #loveit The second-happiest part of my house: this little hutch. Butternut squash... soon to be soup. Spicy black bean soup! Best smell to come home to. #domestic #sorry #barf Nothing says fall like some high school football! Go Mounders! #homecoming2015 Wonderful Saturday afternoon with Habibi and some chai tea. I heart alone time, driving through the country, stopping at thrift sales and grocery shopping. Today, my wonderful hubband put up with a long road trip to this orchard. Golly, I love this man! So thankful for him! This afternoon was a good one. A bushel or a peck? Apple butter is in the crockpot. Applesauce is on the docket. Apple pie is in my tummy. Friends, what are you doing to celebrate the incoming season? I'm looking forward to wearing more smart wools, hiking Hoffman Hills, and filling my belly with different kinds of pie. "I want to get a punkin!" "Why?" "Because they're cute and it's fall!" "But what are we going to do with it?" I may have married Ron Swanson. :) "I think maybe the difference is that you care if our porch is cute and I am totally indifferent." Amen.

I'm guessing I'll have it all figured out by the time I turn 30.
