Fill in the blank Friday.

Yes, that's right. I'm linking up with Lauren again. She's cute and so is her baby.

1.  Right now the weather where I live is     starting to feel like fall. Still hitting some higher temps during the day, but evening and morning are just beautiful! Lots of time spent on the back deck this month :)

2.  The best piece of advice I've been given is   "let it go". I tend to get really worked up and stuck in cyclical thinking, so I need to be constantly reminded to get out of my own head   .

3.  My most favorite person in all the world is   One of my gal-pals. I've admired her since they day we met and she continues to be someone I have the most fun with, look up to and to whom I feel connected  .

4. If I were to have a "mission statement" for my life, it would be     Do better than before. Always try harder, don't give up, keep on truckin'. Sounds OK, right? Part of why I get stuck in cyclical thinking, however, is that I get on a path to perceived success and if it doesn't work, I have a hard time re-routing.

5. My most favorite item in my closet is   my "little black dress". It's my go-to for weddings and special occasions. I get tons of compliments on it, it's comfortable, flattering, I can wear it with flats or heels, AND I can wear a regular bra with it. Thank you, Express! 

6. The best cure for a bad day is  coffee and a nap. Then, a glass of wine if the day still sucks by the end of it  .

7.  Today is   going pretty well, but far too slowly! I have a hot date tonight .

Happy Friday! Have a really wonderful autumnal weekend. Pick some apples or something.
