These past couple weeks have been busy ones for me and mine; we moved, Montana finished her ballet classes, we had her and Tristan's birthdays, and Halloween. For now, however, things are quiet. I am sitting on my couch blogging on WordPad because I have no Internet in the new house, and I'm listening to the radio because I also have no cable.
I adore my new house, it is perfect. I am sitting in my living room in the basement, with the hardwood floors and built in wooden shelves, and to my left there are beautiful green drapes which open into my cozy little bedroom. I couldn't be happier with this move.
We moved here last Friday, with the help of a couple temporary workers, my brother DW, and a good friend J. We finished by suppertime, so J brought his kids over and we all had a great night. The next night it was J's turn to play host, as he and his wife Lee had a Halloween party. I dressed up as a Catholic school girl, with my hair in pigtails and slutty makeup. It was a hit!
The next night of course was Halloween, so we met up with all our parent friends so we could trick-or-treat together. Montana was a zombie bride and Tristan was Jason from Friday the 13th. The kids had a blast, and it was nice to walk around this neighborhood with our friends.
Since then we have had playdates, coffee dates, a trip to the park, and lovely short walks to school in the morning and home in the afternoon.
There is still much to do here, but I am enjoying sorting through everything and setting up my space the way I like it.
This weekend we are hoping to have Lee and J over to play games, or maybe a couple other friends. Sunday we are going to my Auntie L's house for dinner to celebrate what would have been my dad's 70th birthday. Shocking that he would have been that old, and sad that he never got to be. We are going to pack up Rummoli and play together the way my parents used to, and my dad's parents. It'll be nice.
I believe that is my week in a nutshell!
