Fall!

We're supposed to head up into the nineties again this weekend, but fall is in the air. The angle of the sun makes things feel different as does the cool-ish breeze.

I haven't blogged in forever, so I'm well overdue for an update. Work is going well. I'm slowly gaining clients. I'll have a high number one week and the next week I'll be back down. So I'm just trying to be patient and be a good receptionist in the process. The good part of being the receptionist is that I have learned a ton about insurance, billing, and the financial side of things. On the therapy side, I've had some interesting cases. Really, people in general are interesting. If you came into my office, I would find you fascinating even if you think you are pitiful and boring. Hopefully you don't hear me saying that you are species that I am putting under the microscope to study (although I guess a little of that goes on!), but mainly that everyone is so different. On the outside. On the inside, I think we're all about the same. Bleah, bleah, bleah, not sure what I'm really talking about. Should have just left it at - people are interesting.

For Labor Day, the young professionals group at church went on a campout. I think 20 something people went. Tric and Dave both came, as did two of my roommates. It was such a blast. Saturday was a blast of heat, but the rest of the time was just a fun blast. We came back on Sunday so Tric, her roommate, Haley, and Haley's friend Alisha, and I could run the "Escape from Turkey Mountain" trail run on Monday morning. Again, it was so fun! They did the 5 mile and I did the 2 mile. The first part was annoying because the trail was so narrow that you couldn't pass the very slow people. I wasn't the fastest by any means, but I wasn't the slowest either. By the time I was able to pass people, I guess my coffee had kicked in because I felt like I flew that last mile. Sounded like a freight train, but I was moving pretty fast for me. Super, super fun. After that we went and got breakfast burritos. Delicious. T and I met with Dave later for deep dish pizza for lunch. Also delicious.

This weekend, I'm trying to round up some folk to go hike at Turkey Mountain (hill). It's about 5 minutes from where I live and there are some decent trails, for this vicinity. Besides that, just planning to sleep in on Saturday. Between camping and running at 7 in the morning on Labor Day, I've been worn out this week!

Have a great weekend!!

Man! It all sounds like a blast! So glad you've gotten to hang out with Tricia and be outdoors. I'm ready for Fall too!

You do have an interesting life. But I guess that is because that is what you MAKE it. Love hearing about all you do.
