Making the most of Fall in New England

Well Fall is officially upon us here in the US.  Wednesday marked the first official day of Fall and Massachusetts is well on its way into embracing the season of pumpkin everything.  However this year, especially, it seems that most New Englanders have already started talk of winter and the fear of another snow monster season seems to be looming over everyone.

BACKKKK UP NEW ENGLANDERS!  Let’s not let a bit of cold water quell our spirits, eh? 

Let’s instead start thinking of ways to enjoy the new season upon us and how to keep us from entering into a premature hibernation for winter!

Fall in New England is absolutely beautiful and there are a number of ways to experience its splendor.

Happy New Year!

New Year’s Eve started with a half day of work that was crazy busy due to the year end closing (life of a finance person).  While it was nice having so much to do that made the 5 hours in the office fly by, I probably could have used the other half of the day to really get some things done.  But in the end, I gladly welcomed the extra time to chill out in the afternoon before the nights festivities.

Happy Thanksgiving and the truth about life away from home

Happy Thanksgiving!  (Well a day late but close enough for me)!

Hopefully my 2 week hiatus from the blog has not been a total disappointment to my kind readers.  The good news is that it was for a trip back to the US.  While I wish the whole 9 days were spent just hanging out and getting to see my loved ones, I unfortunately had to give 4 and a half days of that to work.  Even so, I am extremely grateful that I was able to go home for a little bit and get some time with this guy!

A Brewerkz Sort of Weekend

This weekend was definitely the most low-key weekend I’ve had since being in Singapore, which I happily accepted.  It’s hard not getting overwhelmed with wanting to see everything and make sure to check off everything from those “best things to do in Singapore” or “things you must do before leaving Singapore” lists.  While 6 months seems like plenty of time to get things done, it also goes by SO quickly, as I’ve learned from previous rotations.  I spent the last 6 months exploring the Midwest (shout out to my Indy friends) and I feel as if there is so much more I could have done!

This weekend started out with our gang of three having a few things on our list to check off.  While some of them didn’t make our final itinerary, I feel like we had a great weekend anyway!
