The Times They Are A-Changin

The end of this weekend also officially marks the end of my stress free summer

where did the time go?!

Today is the start of my fall, and last, semester at LSU

Tuesday, I start my new job

& 

On Saturday we are moving out

For a person that hates change and is very emotional, these next few weeks are going to be really rough

I know all this change is for the better, but it's still so tough to say goodbye to the old

Luckily, I have a very energetic 9-week old puppy to help keep my mind off all the change

We have a 10-day in-between period from moving out of Parker's old place and into our new one, so we are temporarily moving in with Parker's sister and storing all of our things at his grandma's house

which means, that we have been snooping nosily around the closets and finding the most amazing clothes 

how incredible is that fur coat?!

Saturday was Leo's second trip to the vet!

He weighs 12.5 lbs and has a complete clean bill of health!

Go Leo!

Saturday night was family packing night

Those two weren't much help, but their cute faces were enough

Cold beer was much needed to help keep us from screaming out in frustration at the chaos of moving boxes and two dogs in 100+ degree heat

It's gonna be a very long and tiring week/weekend coming up

but, I must remind myself to focus on the positive and take it one day at a time

I tend to overwhelm myself with thinking 10 steps ahead and putting all my energy into the stress and chaos rather than the positive and exciting 

which I then tend to take out on those around me.

Sorry, P

It's one of my worst traits, but I'm working on it
