"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns." (George Eliot)

We're all moved out of the apartment and somewhat settled. We'll be taking advantage of this coming weekend to actually get everything in the room set up and ready to be livable. At the moment, we're living room squatters. Haha. But it's working out okay.

Last weekend, I experienced my very first camping trip. We all had a great time and I wouldn't mind participating in a weekend camping getaway once a year or so.

Last week, my friend and I joined Curves. Yesterday, we had our first training session and we're both extremely excited to kick butt at this and really improve our health and image. I'm really loving how Curves works. The machines are situated in a circular training circuit and one 30-minute workout consists of two times around the circuit. The machines are designed to keep your heart rate up and work all your muscles. In addition, we will be assigned Curves key cards that will keep track of our progress on the machines and will determine what resistance and speed we need to maintain to keep progressing. Good stuff. I can't wait to start seeing results from it (along with an improved food plan). So far, so good.

I'm absolutely ecstatic for the approaching Fall weather and holiday season. I also can't wait to attend and partake in a friend's beautiful Colorado wedding in October, our one year anniversary in November and a week-and-a-half Thanksgiving trip to Ohio to spend time with family and friends. I'm just really looking forward to the rest of this year...
