i think i feel good. i feel good.

i'm going to make a list because i really like lists and i'm in a good mood.


cris: is very pregnant and lovely right now. i'm excited for the second pair of little running feet on their wooden floors. we get along so much better now. it's weird what distance did for us.


love: truth is... richie and rachael remind me of love and relationships and gives me that faith. and nate is just pure love. i think i'm in love with life. at least in the moment.


excitement: i like the possibilities in front of me. i had fun labor day weekend up in maine. saw melissa friday, the lavigne family and jennt most of the weekend and jennt's family sunday. i joined the gym here and started taking classes this wednesday. each day i try something new. i've taken 7 classes and have only one more i want to try out. this weekend kendra (also new to aces consulting team) and i are either going to go buy some shoes or check out the irish pub down the road. a pub in walking distance sounds kind of stellar. and! in two weeks the girls are coming for the weekend. it's like "ladies' lunch" but in a new state... and after 2.5 years jocelyn can come. excitement!


new digs: i like branford. it's this small 'gilmore girls' type town. this morning there was a blueberry pancake breakfast on the green put on by one of the churches. we have a town wide family picnic on the 13th. there is also a 'touch the truck' thing some time soon. and a road race possibly tomorrow in new haven. anyway, it's strange to be some where with little shops and places to eat, with people running and walking outside, and an awesome library system. all this after being in wetumpka where no one walks outside or rides their bikes or walks over to the local coffee shop... mostly because wetumpka wasn't set up that way. everything i need is in walking distance. people recycle. i have more to do. kendra lives within a couple minutes walk. ct life can be fun. oh, and the job is going well... lots going on, lots to do, lots of challenge already... one week at a time.

a shower and a stretch sounds good. also more 'house' (season 4) and more strawberries.

come do my laundry.
