a picket fence... and school





Cardigan: Banana Republic (old, similar), Shirt: Old Navy, Belt: Target, Jeans: Fedora Boutique, Purse: Macy's, Boots: Banana Republic, Bracelets: Pop of Chic and ASOS, Watch: Target

This is definitely one of my favorite times of year.  Fall reminds me of new beginnings, which probably sounds strange since it's not a new year.  I think it's more of the 'new' school year.  Which I'm far removed from now, however the season of it is still instilled in my brain apparently.  I loved school!  Work not so much.  Why is it that when we are in school we just want to graduate and get a real job?  Have some consistency in life?  Money?  Now that I'm out, I think, well that was dumb.  School was way more fun!  I don't always say it, but I do appreciate having a good, stable job.  So thank you God for that!

As I was typing out SCHOOL, I stared at it, did I spell that right?  SKOOL.  What a strange word.

Happy Tuesday!
