These formatted updates are about all my brain is good for right now.  Just want to again say I'm still here!

Doing:  Taking a much needed mental break from work.  I don't know why, but it has just been crazy and I feel like I am barely keeping float.

Thinking about:  How busy the next few month are going to be, and how I am going to deal with the stress and anxiety I already feel creeping in.

Watching:  So much stuff!  Parenthood, I can't believe this is the last season.  I am heartbroken over this.  At least I know The Walking Dead will be around for a while yet, and yes I am a fan.  Also happy to have Ghost Hunters back.  We have also been watching Gotham, which has been interesting but yet doesn't always manage to hold my attention.  Next month the final season of The Newsroom should start, another favorite that I am very sad to see go.

Looking forward to:  Dare I say the weekend?  We were just out of town on a lovely anniversary getaway.  It is so hard to come back (even though we missed out bed and our cranky kitty) after a lovely time away.  If you find yourself in the Bend Oregon, check out McMenamin's Old St. Francis School.  We were impressed with their menu, and as always loved the laid back feel of hanging out there.  This weekend we have a play date with some friends we haven't seen in over a year (being a grownup sucks sometimes) and I'm very much looking forward to catching up with them!

Reading:  I am finally reading the Bright Empires series by Stephen R. Lawhead.  I'm on the 4th of 5 books, the last book comes out early next month.  After that I'm not sure where I'll land.  I have a lot

Loving:  My husband.  He makes every day better for just being a part of it.  This is also our favorite time of year.  I love the colors of fall, the call of the pumpkin patch, the cooler air, and the rain (which we had a nice downpour of recently).  Wine tastes better this time of year.  David makes me batches of yummy soups.
