October...really?!?

Fall is really here. The air is cool, the leaves are turning, and college football underway. I'm not quite sure where September went but we were on the go and took some pictures so I at least of record that it existed.

With the change of the season, I feel like a lot of changes are going on with me too. I feel like the list goes on and on but for starters...my job is bit up in the air. I'm not sure what will come with my job since I'm in a temporary position through mid-November (I think). At this point, I feel the best thing to do is pray and ask for prayers from those around me. God always has a plan and stressing about it just isn't going to help.
Also, I just feel like purging. You know that feeling when you life is over run with "stuff"? I got rid of a large amount of scrap supplies that I don't use anymore and made some extra cash. I barely notice the dent and feel like I've only scratched the surface but it feels great! Next, I want to tackle more scrap supplies and my overflowing closet and drawers. I certainly don't get this urge often enough so I'd better go with it!
I'm also trying to refocus my time and energy into more meaningful activities. I've been reminded multiple times lately how short life is and that it can be taken away at any moment. I desire to live life to the fullest and cherish everyday.
I've got a few projects that I need to get around to posting. I received the baby quilt back that I was working on and just have the binding around the edge to finish. I also finished my mini-book of our trip to Portland. Starting the project before I left was the best thing I ever could have done. Otherwise, I'd just be sitting with a stack of photos like every other trip!
I'm working on a skirt in my sewing class at Vogue Fabrics too so I'll be able to share it before long.

I'll leave you with a few pictures from our trip to East Lansing a couple weekends ago. In case you didn't hear, my Spartans beat the Irish - Go Green!!


Have a great weekend!
