no84I woke up Saturday morning and jumped into the day without even realizing that September was done and gone and October was officially upon us.

And because you’re probably wondering, we don’t turn the clocks back an hour until the first week of November. Slow your roll (and keep your alarm set on schedule).

It’s finally feeling like Fall in the city and I couldn’t be happier to trade my sandals for boots and sundresses for sweaters. I may have gone a little overboard with the amount of Fall scented candles I have burning in my apartment at the moment. But aside from the heavenly smells and warm drinks, a new month and the start of a new season helps everything feel fresh.

It’s a good moment to revamp your routines, re-commit to your goals and embrace some new changes. Let’s mix things up and push our limits in October 🙂
