Yeah, it isn't really relaxing, but it makes the work go by more easily.

It's definitely been a crazier year for me than normal, and I'm feeling that need to chill, but I don't think it's going to happen until January--unless the pregnancy forces me down. (Pregnancy, please don't do that. I don't have time to rest!) ;)Crystal Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912469552483168148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323118066785311281.post-89979998650664819952014-10-02T10:11:14.560-05:002014-10-02T10:11:14.560-05:00I'm right there with you on October being my a...I'm right there with you on October being my absolute favorite month but I would add that it's because it also contains my fave holiday: Halloween!!!
