I just realized I passed my anniversary and didn't even think about it! Guess that means I am finally established here.
I do love my job and I'm finally feeling like I can get around at least the West Valley and parts of the city without getting all turned around. I like the climate more than not. I've been able to visit my family several times this year. We actually went on a vacation-type trip. The animals are taking over our home and it feels normal. What more can I ask for????
And a view from the Peanut Gallery:
No wonder we always feel like we are being watched! LOL
