Hello!
After I had a meltdown that included me screaming, "I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO YOU PEOPLE I AM SO ANGRY!" to some poor incompetent person working for some completely incompetent internet company (why are they all so bad?!)- we finally have internet here on 20th! Hi, world. That was almost a month of no internet. Which sets me really behind because I don't do the whole working in an office thing- so I just let things slip away. I did get a new iPhone! Which is awesome because the old one was so old that none of the buttons worked. Now my technology is ridiculously slick. It's practically an embarrassment of riches.
The move went off without any major catastrophe. I am filled with so much amazing gratitude every time I walk around in our new neighborhood. I absolutely love it here, and feel as if we've landed in a home for the first time since we lived on Bell Street. I am happy to no longer feel in transition mode... which is a mode I feel as if I've been in since getting pregnant, really. I honestly think that, with this move, I feel I am settling into my roles as a co-parent, a working mother, a home-maker, etc. It's a really exciting time!
And so BUSY. I have so much to say and I won't say much because my gosh, I'm ridiculously tired and still a little overwhelmed with trying to get our lives in order quickly- before my parents come on November 2nd. I just want to feel settled into the house a bit more before taking on 2 guests. I seem to get things done in fits and bursts, though. And we've had a few good friends helping out! Loren has taken Niko on a date one afternoon a week and Amelia! good god Amelia came over to the house and went crazy organizing things and helping me hang art. The house went from being the sort of space you can't really LIVE in to being a actual HOME in the space of a few hours one afternoon last week. She's a mighty talent.
Does anyone out there do all their banking through BECU? We opened an account with them when we bought our car and think I'm going to transfer all the household finances over. I'm interested in hearing about anyone's experience with them, or with credit unions in general.
Also! I'm hosting a clothing sale for ladies on Saturday the 29th. There will be all sorts of random things aside from clothing, too. I am broke as a joke and have all these big ideas for our new space- so please come for deals that will help you (deals!) and deals that will help me (cash!). Also: I'll bet it will be fun (fun!).
Goodnight!
