living in boxes
I'm posting today from the very slow computer in Darin's office. Internet should be in our house on Thursday or Friday and then it's back to regular updates from me.
For now, how about a little list?
Things I already miss about Bellingham:
- Knowing where stuff (both inside and outside my house) is
- Being minutes from grocery stores, coffee shops, restaurants, and Trader Joe's
- My friends, of course
- Our church
- My shower head
- The board books in the library are in a basket. Daisy can't de-shelve them all!
Things I already like about being here:
- This place is gorgeous!
- All the animals around camp. Daisy is in heaven.
- The really nice people
- Our bigger house
- Darin at home for lunch, or us all joining up in the Dining Hall for meals
- Being home full-time
sounds great, glad to hear you are having a good time, and i know how hard it is to move away from friends, but thanks to the internet (and blogs) its easy to keep in touch!

Can't wait to see pictures of the new house! How exciting to be a stay at home mom! You and Daisy can do so many things together this summer!! EXCITING!!
Check out www.matchingmoms.com and look for other stay at home moms in your area or a local play group in your area!! I met a great friend off there 4 yrs ago :)

Moving is hard work! I'm glad to have a little update from you, though.

There is no doubt about it... moving STINKS! I'm happy to hear that the place is bigger and close to animals. I want to come for a visit soon. What works for you?

It won't be long before the boxes, unpacking and cleaning is a distant memory. My advice (as if you asked for it) is to not stress out while living in boxes! It's so easy to do but it will get done. I can't wait to see you guys Friday!

I clearly wrote my comment right before going to bed. Here's a more clear re-write

Congratulations!
