Well, I am taking baby steps to being a grown up . . .

I had a local adventure today.  I went into the downtown area and went shopping.  I visited the local hardware store and furniture store.  The hardware store was great.  You all know how much I observe customer service and let me tell you, it was amazing!  From the moment I walked in the door until I left everyone was very helpful.  After the hardware store I went to the furniture store.  I have to admit this came from the very strong encouragement of my mom - who I believe would not be back to visit me until a sofa was in my living room.   I actually bought a sofa - for those of you who know me well, this is a big step!!!!! Now, I have to make room for the sofa and for the guys to bring it in.  Today, I also found a space heater.  I am hoping that the weather is warming up enough I will not need it but I was not going to pass it up.  Amazing the things you find in the most unsuspecting places.

On the box front, 10 more - while that does not seem like a lot (especially given the mass numbers I have to go), it was a big job.  I finished unpacking my clothes today, organizing them and trying to figure what was going where.  I also finished my bathroom and bedroom.  Two rooms down - I am making tremendous progress. 

I am settling in, which includes feeding the farm animals.  There are witnesses who can attest to my new friends - they are so fun.  I will be very sad when they move to their new house. I am truly being acclimated into the peaceful life in the country.

For tonight . . . I'm just sayin'
XOXO
