I swear Saturday mornings with blueberry waffles and turkey bacon just make the entire day go better :)

My "Friday" scrubs. Ugly. There is black on the sides of the scrubs for "slimming" but then they put a stupid pocket in the front of the scrubs; and in my opinion, everyone looks like they're pregnant. I can't wait until I have a job where I can dress up for work-or at least don't have to wear scrubs that make us look like we're from "Star Trek", according to one of our patients :)

 I took the short cut home the other day and ended up sitting, waiting…gotta love construction.

Um yeah, Tim forgot to check his pockets when he put the laundry in….an ENTIRE box of gum went in with our clothing…I am SO HAPPY I saw it before I put the clothes into the dryer. And he's the one that says he always checks his pockets before putting his clothes in the laundry basket, so why should he check his pockets again before he puts them in the washer? :)

 My awesome sister-in-law surprised my brother for his birthday with a trip up to where we live. He went on a hike with our brother-in-law, and then we had a mini celebration for both of our birthdays-his is September 29, mine is October 14.

 I finally got rid of the summer decorations, HELLO FALL :) :) :) Hello comfortable sweaters and jeans, drinking tea on the crisp weekend mornings, chili and other fall soups/stews, not sweating so much when I work out :), leaves falling, fall scented candles!!!, my birthday, and so much more! Fall is my favorite season.

 Is it too early for Halloween decorations? I think not.

 My day gets 10 times better when these lovelies come in the mail :)

My first apple pie that actually turned out!!! Not too juicy, flaky crust, ahhhhhh. It was perfect. FINALLY!

Gotta have apple pie and ice cream. We always buy the Haagen-Dazs vanilla bean. I feel better eating it since there's only five ingredients.

Gotta do this with the crust-my mom always does :)

 Okay, so last Tuesday Tim and I had the ENTIRE day and night off. No work for either of us. It was the best day off together we've had in a LONG time. We bought "The Avengers", went out for some delicious pizza and breadsticks at a place we've never been, went home and watched "The Avengers" and just laid around the rest of the day. It was the best. The picture above does not show AT ALL how our day went. Tim always does his best spoiling the pictures I take of him when I tell him to smile...

 These breadsticks are definitely in my top 5. They were so light and flaky and DELICIOUS!

 The pizza was okay-for some reason they used a different sauce on the pizza than on the breadsticks, and it was sweet. I don't care for sweet sauce; however, when we get BOGO large pizzas, I'll eat it :) Two large pizzas and breadsticks for $20? I'll take it. It fed us for three meals :)

I've been having a really hard time since we decided not to move to Traverse City. I'm just depressed and disappointed in myself that I still haven't found another job. I GUARANTEE when I find a new job, I'll feel 90% better. We just live in such a small town, it makes it difficult finding a new job when no one is hiring…I'm also at that point in my life where I'm done with school, had a "grown up" job for the past three years, and just want to TRAVEL. I have the travel bug and IT'S AWFUL! Tim doesn't want to travel until he's done with school due to money which makes perfect sense, but I'm going stir crazy! I just want to see the world. So until he's done, I'm going to try and plan mini trips. Somewhere. ANYWHERE! We're planning a trip with two of our good friends somewhere tropical in February (Heather and I get severely depressed after Christmas, we figured this would be the PERFECT time to take a trip!), and then Tim wants to go to PAX East 2013, which is a video game convention in Boston in April. It's one of the largest video gaming events in America! I'm super excited for that! I'm not addicted to video games like he is, but I still think it'd be really cool meeting people who are high up in the video game industry, meeting people from Game Informer…etc., and I've always wanted to go to Boston :) I'm taking one day at a time. I have good days and bad days. Tim does his best to make me feel better. I feel bad that I even talk with him about how bad I'm feeling-I don't want him to feel bad about us not moving to Traverse, but I DO feel better after I talk with him. That's all part of being a couple :)

If you've known me since I was a child, you'd know I'm addicted to candy. Not so much chocolate, but give me sour patch kids, jelly bellies, caramels, hard candies, sweet tarts, shock tarts, anything Willy Wonka really, and I'll eat it. Fast. I have a problem. Seriously. This photo was taken the morning AFTER eating all the sour sugar from the bottom of a sour patch kids bag. I couldn't stop lol! Now I get to pay for it today. Sad thing is, this isn't the worst my tongue has ever looked. I went through our cupboards yesterday and threw out all the foods that are bad for us. I'm trying so hard to be healthy, I just gotta keep the candy out of the house :) I'm surprised all my teeth haven't fallen out.
