Happy Labor Day!

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend. Our weekend plans started with us going to spend our three days in the woods camping with good friends up north in Flagstaff. This did not happen because as the weekend approached the weatherman announced that there was a 60% chance for rain all weekend in Flagstaff. Of all the times for it to rain, it just had to be Labor Day weekend. In reality I wasn’t too bummed when the forecast called for rain and the group called off our camping adventure. I just didn’t want to grocery shop just for camping, pack everything needed to go camping and then unpack everything once we got home. It just sounded like too much work. Normally Andy has done all the packing the past two times we went, but since he forgot some key elements the last time we went I wanted to take a role in the packing this time. Since camping was called off we managed to spend Labor Day weekend doing nothing. We are not too exciting here some weekends and this weekend definitely had no excitement. We did watch the Badger football game on TV and that just made me miss Wisconsin. This happens every year during the months of September and October. I really miss Wisconsin and I think about moving back and my quick weekends home during this time just aren’t enough to get me through the missing Wisco times. I do get over it at Christmas every year when I go home when it’s a heavy reminder of why I moved once I reach the bitter cold and the crappy driving conditions that Wisconsin always has to have. Needless to say this weekend was definitely a “I miss home” weekend. I watched the Badger game and Andy and I reminisced on all the games we went to and how much fun we had. I also was reading about people attending the Taste of Madison on Facebook…which didn’t help the “I miss home” weekend. That was an annual event in Madison that I always enjoyed. That’s ok because I know this moving back to Wisconsin thought won’t last. I go through this every year and I will get over it at Christmas time once I get to Madison and deal with the cold and the crappy weather.
