It’s starting to be that time here. FALL! I love the fall colors. I love back to school. I look forward to it. I hate the yard work that comes with fall though. We’ve already started to take the cushions off the patio chairs and move them inside, I also like the swing to be taken apart and moved inside. It keeps the stuff lasting nicer longer. The amount of money you pay for it, you want it to last. We have done what I think is the final lawn mow of the year, it seems like the grass is pretty dead now. Soon it will be snow and I will be SO ready for summer. I dread the snow, I really do. I wish there was SOME way to convince all of my cousins and family and friends to relocate to a non-snowing place!! I despise the snow! UGH!

My brother has moved out. It’s been a little over a month. He’s been looking at apartments for rent and got his money saved up and away he went. Really it has been good for our relationship and he has been over alot since. He and I get along great but it was beginning to be too much with him living here. I am glad he’s moved into his own place. It really is difficult to live with ANYONE let alone family. His new place is nice and cozy and perfect for him. He’s now a college student too, so he’s living on his own AND going to school… my parents are proud… so am I. At least he’s learned something this last year from his big sister!!

So we are thinking about redoing our master bathroom. One thing we have looked at are several new shower units. We KNOW we want a new shower head. I’ve been looking at some Hansgrohe showers heads and they are so neat. I was talking with a friend who went to Germany while in college. She tells me that over there, in the showers they don’t even have turn dials. You push your temp on a dial pad and jump in. Oh man!! Could you imagine? I would DIE for that!! Seriously! That would be perfect to have the same temperature shower every time I jumped in. Never messing with dials and turn a little more, just a smidge more, oops a little too far. Yeah you are all laughing because you SOOOO know this is what happens AND it annoys all of us. Can you imagine what it would be like if we actually picked up some of the amazing technology they have in Germany!! I need to learn German… I’m moving… I was sold on the shower!

It’s time to get ready for fall. The leaves should fall soon here. The kids are already back in school. We’ve done some prep work around the house. Sometimes it’s more work getting the house ready for the seasons then it takes for the season to pass, I swear!! We’ve gotten some humidifier filters, new furnace filters and started putting the patio furniture away. I am really dreading the thought of snow soon and it really makes me think that I need to SERIOUSLY find a way to convince not only my husband but entire family to move south or west and get away from this! You see, I could totally NOT move without ALL of my family, so I am really in a pickle!

So they make these things called Slingbox and they allow you to watch TV anywhere in the world. I am not sure how good this is really. I mean we have the internet and many people are addicted to that. I am hopelessly addicted to my iPhone and celebrity gossip… do I really need the reality TV everywhere I go? Okay wait… maybe it’s not such a bad idea… what do you guys think?
