Irony ...

I suppose it's a little ironic that my last post was entitled "Happy" and that I mentioned how I was spending as much time with my boyfriend as possible ...

Sadly, we're no longer together. While I'll spare you (and my heart) the details, I can say that the last couple of weeks have been anything but happy. Thankfully, though, I'm getting better every day, and I do think I'll be happy (maybe even happier) in the near future.

I'm so thankful for my wonderful friends - they've really helped keep me busy and have helped me move forward a little bit at a time. I'm really excited about the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure next weekend in D.C. and can't wait to see my best friend Kristin! I've raised more than $2,300 for the cause and I'm actually looking forward to walking sixty miles over three days. The following weekend I'll be "running" a half-marathon here on the Island, but I'm not sure how much actual running I'll be able to do. 73.1 miles in approximately ten days is going to be pretty exhausting, but I'm pumped about it!

Fall is definitely in the air! I love everything about it - the smell, football, Fall decorations, Halloween, sweaters and cute boots :) I've always been a huge fan of summer, but I'm ready for the change. I cleaned out my closet today and pulled out all of my colder weather clothes. So exciting!!

Big things are happening at work, too. I found out last week that I'll be promoted again on October 11th and I couldn't be more excited. I'm finally moving into the bureau that I've been wanting for three years and I can't wait to get started.

Things are definitely looking up :)
