Happy Monday! Chelsea here.
I hope you all had a nice weekend! I wanted to ease ourselves into this week, mostly because I feel like I can't believe how fast this month has flown by. So if I can convince everyone to collectively slow it down a bit and spend some time daydreaming then I will. If it's possible to have a crush on a house, then I totally do about this gorgeous house on Deshler. It's just steps from Schiller Park, it's over a century old, and it's been completely modernized in a way that doesn't lose that "old house" charm. Go ahead and click so you can be obsessed with this gem too!

When a video went viral last month showing a black police officer arresting a white woman in the stands at a local football game in Logan, OH, the whole country seemed to have an opinion. But what about the people who actually live in that small town?

, it all felt slightly more like a typical fall in Columbus. πβ€οΈ
