Well things have finally died down to a semi normal state for us! We're finally here in North Carolina. It was a bumpy ride, leaving at 3am with 2 freaked out cats who pooed and meowed most of the drive down. I did give them Richard's Organic Pet Calm, the first does didn't work well, but it's understandable because they we're just too freak out. The second dose worked wonders!! Barely a peep. I continue to give it to them with all the people coming in and out of the apt. But we made it and couldn't be happier.
The apartment is fantastic! One of my favorite features is the big window that lets tons of light in. It's always bright in here and lifts up my spirits: ) And we all enjoy the balcony, just sitting and relaxing out in the fresh air. We managed to get everything unloaded off the pod in a few hours, but are still unpacking, figuring out where to put all of our stuff. I hope by the end of this week the apartment is all unpacked and there's no boxes or piles of junk around.
In the middle of all this, Rob insisted we go to Asheville for the Bele Chere Festival. He went last year with Plaid Nation and loved it. And since we're so close to it this year (just 2 hours) he felt that we couldn't pass it up. I had a wonderful time in Asheville and enjoyed the festival a lot. It was nice to see the kind of arts and crafts they have down here. I want to go again when we have a house and buy things for it. We ate at the Laughing Seed twice for lunch and dinner! Veggie food never tasted so good!! They also have awesome mixed drinks and beer. Oh and the drive to Asheville was so lovely! We drove through some mountains that loomed like giants in the fog. And we pass by lots of open grass and farms, something I don't see enough of. We plan to go back to Asheville in Oct and stay at a B&B for our anniversary, I can't wait.
Other than that, things are good. We're not running to the stores all day spending tons of money on those small, but necessary things. Nor eating out, but cooking actual meals. Today I'm going to start exercising again so I don't become fat lazy Suzy. Job hunting is...going, but we're confident that at least Rob will have a job within a few weeks. I'm crafting a little bit too. I just started loom knitting and am going to make a blanket. I can't wait to start embroidering and sewing again!
