Fall-ing

I've been having one of those weeks...the ones that seem to test you from every angle. Honestly, it has been getting worse since school started because I have had tons of things to do in addition to work and having classes everyday. I've never felt this emotionally and physically tired in a long long time. I find myself dragging my feet to classes and to meetings.

I know I'm supposed to be happy in doing all of this and I should be doing this because I want to. Right now, I'm at a point where I'm just doing all of this out of responsibility and obligation. I know a couple of my friends are feeling the same way. I can't seem to find a time to just chill and find pleasure in the little things like taking a walk with a special someone.

I miss finding the joy and contentment in doing the little things in life. It's always the little things isn't it? What was going to turn out to be a really crappy night of homework just became a whole lot better. I still can't stop smiling. There's nothing like spending some quiet time talking and remembering the good times...and laughing! I miss walking in the cold with you. Fall isn't quite here yet but I can't wait for it to get cold enough to wear coats and to hold hands with the excuse of keeping them warm. I'm waiting for the leaves to turn red, orange and gold.

It's getting there and I'll be ready.
