Where are we, who am I and what are we doing???

It was a lovely weekend in Georgia. Pete and I have been traveling so much lately (for us) it was really nice to enjoy a quiet weekend at home. I'm extremely behind with posting in general, but especially behind with our travel posts. I mean I haven't even finished with the Europe trip and we've been to Arkansas, Washington DC and New Orleans since then. YIKES! I guess it will all happen soon enough. That's what I keep telling myself anyway...back to this weekend. On Saturday, we took the kids to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins. It was a beautiful day here, but it would be a lie to say that I didn't wish it was a tad cooler. I'm just saying, I am done with 80 degree weather, at least for a long while. Ask me again when I'm shivering in January, daydreaming about the heat, heat, heat of a Georgia summer day. Fantasizing about the feeling when you get in your car and the hot air just hits you like a wall and your leather seats are burning you through your clothes. I know, the memory is only good in the dead of winter and the reality is definitley not good at the end of October people!!!

Do you ever feel like everything going on in life just leaves your head spinning? Well, I have decided that I don't like that feeling and from now on I will be still and just let the world spin around me. I have had a pretty introspective couple of months and all that thinking just might make its way into written form here from time to time. I hope you all don't mind. The changes in season always make me want to make changes in my life. I like writing very much and plan on making use of that hobby because when it comes down to it, I need a hobby! Something I like to do things that are fun and do not involve working or cleaning or folding. Now this is hard for me, because I am known to work all evening and then stay up into the wee hours cleaning just to get things done. It took me a while, but I've realized that that is not fun and I don't really want to do that anymore. I want to have more fun.

I know only three of you will probably respond, but what are your hobbies? What do you make time to do for yourself, to keep yourself sane in your crazy, faster than lightening paced life? Let me know and I hope to be seeing you on a more regular basis.
