A New Season

Y'all.... life comes at you.... FAST.  Just (almost) three months ago, I was just beginning training for my job as a college adviser. School has been in session for a solid month now and I truly am LOVING it. 

I was nervous about working at a school in my hometown, but I seriously could not love the people I work with more!  They are all supportive of the role I am in and love the students as if they were their own.

I will say, when I get home I am TIRED. In college, I never went to bed before 11 (and in my last semester probably before 12). Now I aim to be in bed by 9:30 with hopes of being asleep by 10:30 at the latest.  

I guess the biggest downside is that on the weekends is that I don't have a lot to do.  I try to work out, but I don't hang out with friends. I don't have too many around.  It has been the largest pill to swallow and accept that I am in a different season of life. I do hang out with my family A LOT. This weekend we are going to the UNC-Clemson Football game and the Phil Collins concert (my fave!). So I do have some events to look forward to. 

I am slowly trying to overcome my tiredness when I get home and want to develop a post-work routine as I have my morning routine down pat with the exception that I still do not make my bed every morning. Every night just seems to be a littleeee different so I am still navigating that.

I finished watching all of Big Little Lies last weekend, only two weeks after finishing the book.  I am not one to always hop on hype- trains like everyone else, but it really is as good as people say.  The book is a little different from the show (the show did have me questioning if I liked one character as much as I did in the book).  But the directors and actresses did so well and of course they have to have more to keep the show going!


How is your autumn starting off
