Things that are incredibly frustrating

1. Supply list on J's school page was LAST years. It's wildly different from the list I finally found in the shuffle of the move.

2. Can't speak of it here.

Just checking in

We're finally mostly done with the big move and I must say I'm very relieved to be living in my home neighborhood again! It's just a short walk to my parents and from their house a short walk to my brothers. My mom is pleased to have us in close proximity and it really boosts the convenience factor as far as babysitting and after school pick ups go. My best friend literally lives 3 turns away from me and is about 2 minutes by car if you catch the one traffic light.

We have four rooms and 2 living room and 2.5 baths. Definitely the most space I've had to call my own, ever. The backyard is a gentle slope down to a pond complete with turtles and cypress trees. My only complaint can be the color of the house but hey, that's why it's a rental!


I have an oceanic and dark wood guest room that needs a bed. And a charcoal gray studio that needs setting up. Judith's room is a sunny yellow as mine was as a kid. Our room is compete with en suite spa tub and seperate shower stall. Love. Bathing with a glass of wine after work has been a new treat. Especially when drawn up and waiting for me by Denis.We're still settling in and that always takes awhile because I like things to come organically together (and work a full time job w/ long hours. and help care for a stepdaughter.)

Anyway, life is good.
