Missing Wisconsin

Every year in September I start missing Wisconsin.  It never fails that every Labor Day weekend I start to think about all the positive things WI has to offer and wonder if we could ever move back.  I think about the good times Andy and I had together in WI, our families, the simple small town I grew up in and the beautiful fall weather.  I get antsy in AZ during the months of September and October while I miss my home state.  I think this happens every year because I am sick of the heat right about now and it's hard to think of fall when it's still 100 degrees out.  It's hard to watch the Badger football games when I am sweating my butt off.  It's also hard to watch the games when they show the sights and sounds of Madison and I see everyone's posts on Facebook about how much fun they are having in the beautiful fall weather.  I also see a lot of Pinterest posts about fall food and that is hard because in no way am I excited for hot cocoa and hot cider since I live in an oven right about now.  Agh!

This mood I am in happens every single year at this time and I don't get out of my funk until November when it cools off and we had our annual fall trip home for a good game and cool weather.  This is the time of year that someone could talk me into moving back if they really wanted to...maybe!  I am just going to sit back and wait for our trip to WI in October to be able to enjoy in the fall weather (my favorite time in WI) and get over this funk.

You are not going anywhere! I think this post calls for an emergency girls night before you get any more ideas in your head. I need you to start thinking about January when we are wearing jeans and a T-shirt while people in WI are shoveling snow... helps, doesn't it??? :)
