Helter Skelter

None of the song actually applies to my life. But today was just one of those days where the intro to the song has me going "Yes...that is EXACLY how I feel today." And Helter Skelter is EXACTLY the mode I am taking when I type this blog post.Helter Skelter


So here is my summer full of wisdom...or wisecracks...

1) The whole world is not, in fact, "falling in love with the One Direction movie." I just saw the commercial and it made me roll my eyes...and then giggle at the realization that I was likely first in line for the Spice Girl movie, a way back when.

2) Sometimes fridges quit..in the middle of the hottest day ever...and you have to buy a new one...this sucks.

3) My new fridge is very pretty.

4) I have been without internet for almost the entire summer.

5) Xplornet does have good customer service on the phone.

6) I am pretty sure boys turn into wild animals over the summer. True story. Pretty sure he has stripes and a growl now.

7) Kennedy thinks ANYTHING that has stripes is beautiful. Maybe even with polka dots. Yes. Definitely stripes, spots and zig zags combined. Perhaps she will be a fashion model with this new found appreciation for the beauty of all animal print put together in one outfit.

8) Hope PETA doesn't get a hold of her, or WHAT NOT TO WEAR.

9) Paul McCartney puts on the most amazing concert you will ever see.

10) My Grandpa turned 80 and my Grandma turned 70 and we celebrated like crazy. First time that all of the cousins had gotten together in a picture with our kids. Roy turned 60 and I hear two men in our lives are turning 40 this year...I am pretty sure we are skipping my birthday, because I don't want to turn 25.

I am sad to see summer end and I feel like I accomplished nothing except running all over the place this season. I am (without sarcasm) very excited for autumn. There is something magical about September and harvest and school starting and the leaves turning beautiful colors. I hope that all of you enjoyed your summer and have not had to blow your entire income on school supplies. Happy Fall Y'all!
