** Happy September!

so...it's been a while since i have updated the 5 or 6 people out there about my life. the new job is going well (i'm in the 2nd week) and so far so good. we are learning tons of new computer systems as well as the lingo pertaining to the commercial real estate business. the cool news is that each month if you're market is the top team, you receive a free lunch as well as half a day off! can't beat that with a bat...

i have had to change my gym schedule around a bit and now go in the evenings which is a lot more crowded but there is no way i can function at 6am on the elliptical machine or doing free weights. the point is, at least i am still going and seeing the benefits!

mick has also been fine, thank goddess! no more nasty surprises when i come in. that was thankfully only for 2.5 days and more than enough for me! he is enjoying his new lamb and rice food, (he will eat anything) and scarfs it down in 2 minutes flat.

the weather has been pretty nice as well. sunday was HOT (low 90s and 70% humidity) but we are now back in the low to mid 70s! my kind of weather. fall is my favorite season and halloween my favorite holiday so i really need to start brainstorming about my costume! oh and work has a costume contest so i am quite ready for that challenge and plan to win!! haha

my other highlight for september is the VA wine festival in manassas. it is at the end of the month and a good time. i went about 3 years ago. you really can't go wrong with 50 vineyards and unlimited tastings for $20!! whoop, whoop! my friends from NC will be in town then so i am looking forward to seeing them as well. VA wines are really pretty good and SOOO much better than MD.
