I am telling you, it just doesn't get better than the Midwest

I have finally decided that this is my favorite season. It's taken me 22 years, but this year I finally know it without a doubt. I love each season for varying reasons, but Fall definitely takes the cake. It has a little bit of everything: hot, warm, cool, cold, rain, snow, etc. The leaves turning are beautiful and are a good reminder that sometimes we have to go through that, too, and that, too, is beautiful if we remember to look at it that way.

Yesterday we saw temperatures in the 80s with sunny, windy skies, then severe thunderstorms with heavy rain and a tornado watch. Today temperatures are only in the 40s and as I took the scenic route (and highly indirect, I might add) home from church I was driving north on County Line Road (aka R38 :-)) and I had the sun and blue skies at my back but clouds that held a distinct feeling of snow in front of me. It was the coolest feeling in the world. And I swear I saw a couple of flurries as I was getting into my car to come home, but I think it's just wishful thinking. :-)

Now to take this refreshed feeling and turn it into a permanent job and my own apartment... That's the plan anyway and I have a lot of cover letters to tackle and a road trip to plan to make an attempt at accomplishing that. I'm looking forward to Monday for once and plan to make the most of my day off. :-)
