I'm Home!

We have arrived in DAC safe and sound and have almost finished unpacking the house (we got on a roll and went with it). My little house is just a perfect for me as I'd hoped - the living room is huge, there's a small but cozy dining room and the kitchen is just one step above a galley kitchen, but it's cheerful and clean and all of my things fit in with a little squeezing. The two bedrooms are very nice sized - almost large! We have a nice front porch and a huge back yard with landscaping all over (I need to figure out how to run the mower...). We have become so proficient at putting together IKEA and Walmart furniture, we should get paid for doing this stuff! But everything is together and our couch and chair for the living room are being delivered on Saturday.

But most important is the fact that I feel like I'm home already. Seriously, I truly do love this place, the town, etc. It's hotter than hell here and the mosquitos are having a field day with me, but it still feels great to be here. My aunt has already come by with my dad to help us unload the U-Haul and we're going to see her on Sunday for brunch. Today will be another day of tiny errands (Home Depot, to the department to get my keys, to the insurance agent, hanging pictures, etc.) and tonight we cook at home for the first time (as opposed to eating more take out - my body is dying for a green vegetable)!

I've been trying desperately to keep up with my Bloglines, but I do hope all is well with everyone! More soon...
