FALL...

So I am so happy to be doing this post! As of the 21st of September it is officially Fall. And I absolutely love it. I love everything about this time of year. The mountains are gorgeous this time of year. I love all the fall colors like red, brown, yellow and orange. Fall clothes I absolutely love as well all the fun sweaters, jackets, long sleeve shirts, and boots its great. I love the weather this time of year not too hot and not too cold. Don't get me wrong I love the summer time too but there is just something about the fall. I love Halloween and Thanksgiving. Plus I also love this time year because its football season. Yeah that's right I'm a big football fan and I can actually understand it pretty impressive huh. The only thing that I don't like about the fall is that I know what season follows it winter which I like for maybe the first week and then I'm done with it.

"Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day?" -- Alan Jackson
This week the topic for Tuesday Tell All is about September 11, 2001. I remember that day very well actually. I was a Junior in High School and that particular morning I slept in and was late for school. When I first heard about it I was driving to school. On every radio station were News broadcasters explaining what had happened. I wasn't really paying to much attention to what they were saying. I was in too big of a hurry to get to school. I was trying to find a station that was playing music and not the news. At this point I still had no idea what had happened. I remember that whole day all I listened to was X96 because they were the only station still playing music and not news. I finally got to school and while I was walking through the gym the class wasn't out on the field like they normally were. They were all watching the broadcast on T.V. the first thing I saw was the first airplane going into the trade center then the second plane just after. When I first saw it I thought I was just a movie they were watching. Then I realized what had actually happened. It was a very depressing day. Every class that day and the rest of the week was spent watching the news and talking about what had happened. Now with it being 7 years ago I have such a better understanding of it all. And a greater respect for all the soldiers and every one out there fighting for our country. One thing I will never forget about the whole thing is how much our country came together and what a great appreciation we all had to be living in this great country. I must admit though it is sad that it took a terrorist attack for everyone to be so proud of our freedom and what we as Americans stand for.

#1 I organize my clothes strange....


If someone were to look at my clothes in my closet they would think I'm a very organized person. Even though I'm not. All my shirts are separated into sever categories including short sleeve, long sleeve, 3/4 sleeve and so on. Then once the clothes are in these certain categories they are all organized by color. Crazy I know. I'm not really sure why I started doing this but I have for about 10 years now and now its just habit for me. Also when I take a shirt out of my closet I either remove the hanger and put it in a general area with the other empty hangers or put it done so its not loose. This way I now when my sister has borrowed something.





#2 I'm very clumsy...


Due to my clumsiness I have broken 10 bones and tripped so many times that I can't even count. And in the meantime made a complete fool of myself.


Some of the ways I have broken bones include jumping on the trampoline, roller blading, playing basketball, dancing (this was just a sprain so it doesn't really count) and the list just goes on and on.


I'm getting better with my problem of tripping. I guess I'm finally learning how to balance on 2 feet and I'm still getting used to this whole gravity thing.





#3 I'm part penguin...


I'm really not but when I laugh hard I sound like Wheezy the penguin from Toy Story. I'm told that its actually very funny.





#4 I love to shop...


You could call this an addiction I have. I love clothes and I love buying pretty much anything. it really doesn't matter what it is shoes, clothes, purses, jewelry. Really anything, I guess I'm just a typical girl but my addiction is a little more severe than most peoples.





#5 10 bucks to fill up a Geo...


I bet your thinking what your crazy! But no seriously back in the day when I had my little Geo Metro hand-me-down (about 5 years ago). i could fill my tank full with gas when it was on empty for $10. Oh those were the days.





#6 Mashed Potatoes...


This one is very random.


At Thanksgiving my favorite food is mashed potatoes and gravy. MMM yummy!



I tag Natalie, Mandy, Jessie, Alicia, Deanna and Kristin
So have fun girls!

The Chicks Dig It!

Last night I went to the State Fair to see Chris Cagle! It was a total blast and I had so much fun!

He always does such a great job and he for sure didn't disappoint last night!

I'm so glad that I listed to my cousins and went because it totally made up for the crappy day that I had.

We even got a few picutres of us goofing off by the livestock place! Hey its the Fair you have to at least pretend like you saw some animals!

I know the pictures are a little blurry but its the best I could get with my phone!

TTA...

Ok Tuesday Tell All people enough with all the school themes already. Honestly how much can I really say about school. Hmm lets see well I'm so glad I'm finally done and graduated. Oh but wait silly me wants to go back to school to get my RN I'm never going to be done with school or student loans. But seriously this is all I'm going to say for this week I can't handle another school post blah. If TTA does another school topic next week I'm going to go on strike. To bad I don't have a life or else I would be able to think of topics on my own but oh well what can ya do right?
