I typically just decorate for fall, not so much Halloween. This year I had gotten some really cute ideas for Halloween, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I knew that by the time I got around to it this week, I would've only been able to enjoy it for about a week and a half. 
My only Halloween tribute :)
My one, lonely corn stalk. Sorry buddy.
I can't believe how fast time is flying by these days. We are knockin' at November's door...seriously, that makes me super excited and sad all at the same time! It's times like these that I'm glad I'm extremely obsessive with being a planner. Being a planner is a curse and a blessing all at the same time.

Curse? Because it is all consuming. I love finding something new to do...whether its a party/shower to plan, new decorating ideas, a concert/play to go to, what Presley will be for Halloween or what I'm getting her for Christmas, making any and every kind of To-Do list, putting new and old traditions into play...heck, even planning for a vacation that may or may not happen. I love it all, and I get a thrill out of writing something new in my planner. So... I can never be a "fly by the seat of your pants" kind of gal. And Heaven help all the poor innocent people that happen to be in my presence when there's a change of plans...I can't stand it.

Blessing? Because I absolutely refuse to miss out on life. I think that just might be one of my biggest fears...maybe I should've mentioned that in today's post on fears hah! Seriously though...every time I hear of something I want to do, I almost have to do it. I don't want to look back and say "Man, I wish I would've just gone ahead and ______." *
So even though every second of my life between now and Christmas is already booked, I can't help but be excited that I'll be able to look back on so many things I got to share with Clinton, Presley, family, and friends. I've just got to make sure that I don't stress about it, and just take it all in and enjoy it.
