Hello to all! First, a happy late birthday wish to my husband (Jan 10), my sister (Jan 13) and my dear friend Jessica (Jan 10). I really should stop sending birthday wishes via blog because inevitably I'm going to forget someone (Lacy: Dec 4, Jamie: Dec 11, Jesus: Dec 25). If I were more disciplined with updating my blog, it might not be a problem...but alas, I'm not. So, let's just move forward, shall we?
A little birthday shout out to my sister-in-law! Karen is 24 today! Many happy wishes for many wonderful years!
I'm writing you from my new home in Wilmington, N.C. looking out over a beautiful backyard with the sun glinting off the leaves and the birds chirping as they light on my windowsill (not really). My host is an older, single, southern lady, Mary Lou, certainly one of a kind. I'll be attending a few appointments today and Friday, but otherwise I don't officially begin work until Monday, October 9th. Today is a day for exploration (and finding a grocery store that isn't as expensive as Harris Teeter). I hope to have more exciting news with my next post or two.
My mom came over to Decatur on Monday and we had the best time! She taught me the basics of sewing machine usage (I should have sat still for this lesson long ago), and she talked me through making an apron from a pattern. It was great fun! In light of our upcoming move, I think I'll be able to apply the tricks of the trade to made a few home accesories. The best part of the whole day was spending hours with Mom, just visiting and laughing. So, here's the silly picture to go with a fun (successful!) day...
