Fall

Hello everyone! Lately, I have found myself really longing for fall to come! A couple of weeks ago, the weather fooled me. It would get down low to like 60 degrees at night so I thought that the fall was coming early, but no. It is suppose to start doing that again next week after the rain this weekend. I hope it stays like that cause it will be October soon. I like the cold weather, but I can not stand to be cold! I guess I like the idea of wearing warm clothes and wrapping up in blankets. For the last couple of years, Louisiana has had a problem with getting cold when it is suppose to. Normally, it gets cold around the end of September and the beginning of October, but for the last couple of years it does not get cold really until the end of November. But anyway, I also am looking forward to the Fair to come in town. In my mind, I am too old to look forward to the rides and things. I basically just go for the food, walk around for a little while, and play a game or two. The food is like 90 percent why I go though! I love the Fair's candy apples, cinnamon rolls, and the chicken or shrimp on a stick. After the Fair is over, then I start to look to Thanksgiving and Christmas. Since I am older, holidays are just not that big to me anymore; but I still like the time with family, friends, food, and to get away from Shreveport. Last but certainly not least, when the fall is over, I will only have one more semester until I graduate! I have waited so long for this. I was suppose to graduate last year; but I decided to get a double major instead of getting a master's degree, so that pushed me back a year. I guess I just always had it in my head I would graduate in four years, get a good job, and just do my masters. At least when I graduate I will be completely done with school. After that I have to start studying for the CPA exam, but let's take one thing at a time! I am super excited about getting out into the work force, but also nervous, but more eager than nervous. I want to get started with my career so I can work my way up and just basically see what field of accounting I like most. Then I can focus on that and work my way up. But first, come on fall!

  1. I can't wait until fall is here either. I would prefer the cool weather any day. You can always put plenty of clothes on to stay warm, but you can't take enough off to stay cool. My children are ready for the fair to get here. I think they are like you and more interested in the food than anything else. Now you would expect a 9 yr old and a 6 yr old to be more interested in the rides. My kids are just a little bit strange. Then again, I guess they just love to eat.

  2. I agree with you on the weather over the past few years. This year I do believe that we will have a very cold winter (we're overdue). Just as you like the food at the Fair, I love the funnel cakes.

  3. I like the cooler weather, too, but I don't want to be cold, either. I'd love to live in Colorado, but don't know if I could tolerate the snow!
