Happy Thoughts Thursday

How is it that individual days seem to last forever, but October is already halfway done? There simply isn't enough time for pumpkin patches, hayrides, haunted trails, scary movies, football games, and Halloween costume planning. There is time, however, for some happy thoughts.

+ Changing Leaves. Thanks to all the rain recently, I haven't been spending nearly enough time outside, but the leaves around our apartment complex are just dreamy. I actually stopped my car in the middle of the road to admire them yesterday.


+ Fall TV. All the good stuff is back, guys! I can't even explain how much I loved the season premiere of The Walking Dead. I also blazed my way through three seasons of Scandal in record time, so I could be caught up with everyone else. Olivia Pope has me reconsidering law school.

+ Bengals. Wheat and I are going to the Bengals game in Indianapolis this Sunday and I can't wait. I love proudly wearing my orange and black gear in Colts' territory. This will be an even happier thought if we get back to our winning ways.

+ This picture of Sidney Crosby with a dog. No explanation necessary. Maybe I should splurge and buy the Penguins with pets calendar this year. I think I deserve it.



+ "Like Real People Do" by Hozier. I melt.



What's making you happy this week?

Today's #Blogtober prompt is a hilarious one for me: Fall Fashion. If I'm being honest with myself, I have absolutely no sense of style. My clothes never match, I don't have accessories or statement necklaces, and the only item of clothing I have in abundance is t-shirts. My idea of the perfect fall outfit consists of a t-shirt, a cardigan, a beanie, jeans, and my boots. I might throw in a scarf if I'm feeling really crazy.

But that doesn't stop me from drooling over the amazing fall outfits on Pinterest. I wish I had the body money to pull these off.

  1. Yay for a new blog look! :) And I can't even tell you how crazy behind I feel with all the fun fall activities! I have yet to go to a pumpkin patch or apple orchard. If the weather is nice Saturday and if we don't have a baby by then Drew and I are going to try to hit up Iron's. We shall see...

  3. Love all the pinterest pics :) *Gasp* You like Hozier!? I love him so much, but not many of my friends do.. if you like that song you should check out 'From eden' 'Take me to church' and 'To be alone' because they are also amazing :)
