Brains!

Maui is my curse, same time and same thing last year and it wasn't even my trip! Anyway I feel like Maui is when everything started to unravel. I'm starting to seriously consider that karma started shifting in undesirable direction (against us) these past two months for having such a great year. It's like as soon as RF got on that plane, even thing started to pile up. That or the cats and cars are plotting against us, damn four letter words that start with 'c'! And RF going to Maui was their plots beginning. I am still going to take the time, for myself mostly, even if we can't go on our own beach trip just to lousy old Florida. Yes our beach vacation has been completely ruined.

However without that to look forward to, to plan for, I feel liberated. For a while I felt punctured. But now I can catch up. I have to make a big decision one of those annoying adult decisions about cars. A lot of grown up choices have come up since August.

Autumn is settling in and I'm enjoying the late crickets chirping outside the bedroom window before it gets too cold to keep it open. I often feel like it takes half the amount of time to cool down here as it does to warm up. Fall is this short sweet respite between two extremes, and it never lasts as long as Spring. This change in seasons has really thrown me off, I begin to dread the change. I can't keen an even keel or a regular routine. Maybe it's not Maui at all maybe it's just the month of September.

Another thing about weddings: I think also I'm a wedding curse...like I'm not supposed to be at them because of the years and years I spent being negative about them. Last weekend went okay, even if we did have to go pick up kegs of beer an hour in to the reception because no one else could get them. DIY is a pain in the ass. Don't ever volunteer last minute to help out with a DIY wedding. Look I'm still doing it - being negative -don't invite me to your wedding people, I think I'm still missing the whole point.

Hoping for a more prettier and exciting post next time.
