Big changes.

The calendar year is full of opportunities for change.

There's New Year's Eve, Spring cleaning, Lent and more,

but fall has always seemed to me like the perfect time for change. 

Changing seasons, changing leaves, changing temperatures (well, maybe not in LA). 

And of course, sixteen years of going back to school in late August 

makes fall seem like the perfect time for a fresh start,

and, much to my surprise, this year has been no different.

A lot has been changing for us over the past few weeks.

(Good changes, though, in my opinion, so don't worry!)

(Also, I'm not pregnant.)

(No, really, I'm not.)

I've been busy thinking and making decisions and getting

all of my plans secured before I start blabbering about them on the interwebs.

(Ryan calls this I've-got-news-but-I'm-not-telling-you-what-it-is-yet-so-HA tease,

especially when it occurs via cryptic Facebook status, "vague-booking", 

so I apologize now for vague-booking you all). 

But I'll share soon! 

P.S. Sorry for my lack of post yesterday.

Sometimes Mondays just need to be ignored.
