Lots of changes…
Wow, a lot has changed in my life in the last 16 days.
First, I found an apartment of my own. I am no longer living over my boyfriend’s parent’s garage with only a minute amount of my belongings.
Second, the boyfriend is no longer the boyfriend. This event did coincide with the move to my own apartment.
There is a third part but I don’t feel right discussing it here just yet. It’s a very good third part…you’ll have to ask me personally for the third part.
The apartment is good. Cute and full of my belongings. I get to sit on my couch and loveseat again. I get to stare at my books and watch my DVDs. I’m typing on my computer at my desk. I get to sleep in my bed. My wonderful bed with the new frame and the nearly new mattress I bought last year and only slept on a handful of times. I get to cook again. Last week I made enchiladas and realized it was the first time I’d cooked a full dinner myself since last fall!
Everything is unpacked. All I have left to do is the hanging of pictures and posters.
I feel good. Better than I have in a long time. Work is pretty good as well…I’m not letting it stress me out too much right now…I’m too busy being happy with the non-work aspects of my life for the first time in at least a few months.
I made dinner again tonight…just because I could. I also made S’mores Bars…which I hadn’t baked in at least 5 years. I can’t wait to eat them tomorrow.
The sisters and I (and some boys) are going to see They Might Be Giants in Charlottesville next Tuesday…and then it’s my birthday next Wednesday. This should be a good week.
Sadly I’ve barely knit since the move. But I do have a small closet that is half devoted to yarn storage. It has lovingly been dubbed the “Yarn Closet” and it wasn’t even my idea. I’ll take a picture of it soon. I’ll make more time for the knitting soon as well…now that I’m mostly settled in here.
