I'm looking forward to breaking out the sweaters and actually going outside. It's been over 100 degrees (Fahrenheit) here on a consistent basis until this week, which is not conducive to spending a lot of time outdoors. I'm hoping this fall will be a good one. I didn't really take advantage of the atmosphere last year. I think a lot of it was because we had just moved here and I still hadn't quite settled.
I hope it doesn't pass by too quickly. It's already been a month since the summer program ended and it doesn't feel like it at all. Time has been flying. I've kept myself busy with school and work. One thing I have enjoyed that I never really enjoyed before is cooking. It's one of those things I've never had the patience for. I have a tendency to burn things because I can't bring myself to stare at something on a stove. I usually get distracted and start doing other things. According to Dakota, "the smoke alarm is my timer." But I've been actually doing a decent job lately. I even made up my own recipe for empanadas and they turned out really well!
I've also been working on my sewing. I came up with these little ballerinas recently. I think they're my favorite thing I've made so far.
I hope I can travel somewhere soon. I've been feeling restless lately.
