On my mind...in Iowa.

• Wow.  Moving is a mean (insert naughty word here).
• Babies can really put a damper on the sailor talk.
• I'm trying to cook with a gas range.  I don't have it down yet.
• I have a two loads of laundry to fold.
• I don't want to.  I'll fluff them in the dryer tomorrow.
• It's what Martha Stewart would do.  (Maybe.  In an alternate universe.)
• I'm waiting for Uriah to get home.  It seems like the wifely thing to do.
• I wish he'd hurry up.
• I met someone famous last week...I love famous encounters.
• I did not meet someone famous in Iowa.  Famous people don't generally come here.  They go to Minnesota.
• There are a lot of boxes in my dining room.  A lot.  And they still need to be unpacked.
• I wish I could wiggle my nose and an Unpacking Fairy would appear and do it for me.
• Do you have any idea how stupendous it was to sleep in my own bed last night?  Amazing.
• Abby started school today.  Praise the Lord and pass the gin. 
• I don't think I was going to be able to handle one more day of, "I'm bored...I should be learning something.  I should be in school!"
• She printed off math worksheets that she downloaded from the internet.  Seriously.
• I thought most kids liked an impromput 2 week vacation from school.
• I just realized that my kid is not "most kids."
• I'm just kidding...I didn't just realize that.  I've known it for awhile.
• We have a grocery store that feels exactly like the grocery store that I worked at in high school. 
• It even smelled the same...like fresh bread and deli meat and gossip. 
• What do you think of my house?  I L-O-V-E it (that is way better than "hearting" something).
• I wanted to share a picture yesterday, but I waited and took that picture today after Uriah mowed the lawn. 
• I don't think I'm going to be able to wait for Uriah...too sleepy.
• Hopefully more pictures later this week...
