Happy Tuesday, blog friends! Let’s start today off by having a serious conversation:
Fall has not started yet.
I know that’s not a popular opinion. But listen! Autumn begins on September 22nd. And it’s going to be GLORIOUS. But as a strong member of the “We Don’t Listen To Christmas Music Until The Day After Thanksgiving” committee, I cannot participate in the fall festivities until summer’s officially over. Do I love boots and sweaters and such as much as the next girl? Of course! But I also don’t want to get sick of cider and pumpkin beer halfway through October. So let’s savor these last few days of summer, and then on September 22nd? I promise I won’t hold back from Starbucks’ fall-flavored drinks.
Except Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Because those are disgusting.
(I know, I heard the collective shudder that just went ’round the world, too. Sue me.)
Moving on: I spent this past weekend in West Palm Beach for TJ & Lexi’s wedding, and it was SUCH a joy-filled event! Hurricane Hermine (which I kept misreading as “Hurricane HermiOne”) passed north of us, so all we had to contend with was a short downpour (which, to be fair, is pretty standard for Florida weather regardless of the hurricane forecast- growing up in Orlando taught me that!).
And alongside learned how to scrutinize the doppler radar, I ALSO learned just how magical Ibuprofen is. I’d been battling the flu for several days and prayed it would go away before the wedding, but not only did I wake up feverish on Saturday, I also managed to develop bronchitis as well. But a regimen of water, regular doses of Ibuprofen and Dayquil, and my amazing second Lauren meant that I was rocking and rolling all day! Thank you, Jesus!
As always, lessons learned/events that transpired over the weekend:

HEAR HEAR on the first part! I LOATHE the holiday creep, especially the Christmas creep.
Also, pumpkin flavored anything is gross.
Love that you stick to seasons to the very end! Hope you are feeling much better by now!????????
I so agree about Fall. It’s my favorite season, mostly because of the cooler weather & the beautiful leaves, but it’s still summer now! I also dislike pumpkin spice lattes, as much as I love almost everything else pumpkin flavored. Of course I don’t like coffee at all so maybe that is why.
Ahhh… how can you not LOVE PSLs? I’m just going to pretend I didn’t read that part LOL! But I do agree about waiting for the holidays. Why do we rush everything these days?! I walked into Target a couple of days ago and Halloween was everywhere. Emailing Like a Boss was sooo good! Thanks for sharing!
PS: We will definitely have to meet next time you’re in South Florida 🙂
