So...where did September go?

Yeah...the last 30 days or so have just slipped by. Pleasantly, but without making much of a fuss, and without lingering that's for sure.

I may have mentioned Team in Training and Jeremy and I training for a marathon/half marathon. Well, unfortunately we're not going to continue the training this time. Since it's a fund raiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, participants are required to raise a certain amount of money. Today we had to recommit or bow out. If we recommited then we had to personally guarantee the full fund raising amount, regardless of how much we raised. Our fundraising didn't go like we hoped, and we didn't feel that it was a good time to guarantee almost $5,000. So...maybe another time. On the bright side, I feel like the training we did thus far was beneficial...I might even consider myself a "jogger" now. :) and we did manage to raise some money for cancer research, so I feel proud about that.

Jeremy and Dijana and Dean Shelby are visiting this week. It's been just what I needed...old friends whom I miss dearly. Now if we can just get some of our other dearly missed friends to visit! (hint, hint) I guess we could visit too, to be fair. :)

Anyway. Happy almost the end of September. And happy fall!!
