If you haven't seen this, you should.

I finally got to see it. And wow. So pretty.

The Lower 48

YAY!

It took a week and a half, but I finally got tv and phone and internet hooked up at the new place! Woohoo! Now I'll have something to do when I can't sleep. Last night, I was pacing and talking to myself well past midnight. I read over the list of things I need to do before student teaching starts and it just about crushed my will to live. So much of it! And I don't wanna! So I paced and babbled and reviewed my options until I made myself go lie down and this morning, I was still daunted, but no longer seriously considering organ harvesting or insurance fraud. Serenity returned.



And my Dad came over to help me hang curtains, and yesterday Mom took me to get a peach tree and a summersweet. If I have learned nothing else from the Bella Sara game, it's that the bigger the garden gets, the less I will have to mow. And I have quite a bit to mow.



I kinda like it though. You don't do a lot of yard work in Barrow and I'm enjoying it so far. Except when I got the poor mower stuck in a shrub. Poor Dad had to help me get it out too.

Something that I haven't missed? Bug bites! So. Itchy!
