School starts and fall is here!

This time of year is so strange, because I love the fall colors and pumpkin spice everything. I love that school is starting and finally bringing some order to my life, but at the same time doing homework is no fun. I love fall because it gets cold again and I can wear sweaters, but it’s also so gloomy and the weather makes me kinda sad. Fall is such a strange season, but it’s really one of my favorite seasons.

I’ve really been looking forward to fall this year because this has been such a crazy summer! I’ve been going through some big life changes with getting married, moving out of my parents house and into my own place, being gone a lot on vacation and not having a normal work schedule, and switching churches. It has been really crazy so looking forward to fall has been so good because I knew it would bring some type of normal to my life. I have officially started my senior year of college, I’m back to my regular work schedule, and we have our Wednesday night youth services starting in the next few weeks. After so much craziness and change happening, it’s good to know that some part of my life can be normal again.

I’m not complaining about the changes that have happened, because they have been so awesome and I am absolutely loving being married! I just have the best husband ever! And I love going to church together and serving in ministry together, and having my own place is the best because I love decorating it and making it my own. I’m thankful for all the changes that have happened in my life and the exciting adventure it brings.

One of the things I have loved about this season is that Kyle and I are home together more often and it’s the best! We get to have dinner together, and just hang out and talk. We play a lot of connect4 and I make him watch the Lord of the Rings with me. It has been the best being home together so much and I am just soaking it up because I know it won’t always be like this. Kyle is starting a new job at the end of the month, and we don’t know what his hours will be yet. So just soaking up all the time together.

Now that school has started I am trying to get back in the habit of doing my homework and studying regularly. I have always found school so hard and I never have the motivation to actually do my homework. I find myself being really lazy about it and not being able to do my best work, so I am always trying to find ways to push myself to do my best and to get it done. Have you ever had issues with finding motivation to get things done? What did you do about it? I would love to hear any and all suggestions you have so please leave a comment on how you find the motivation to get things done!
