Oh. Hi!

I’ve been, umm. Busy? Yeah, I think I’ve been busy, and that any objective observer would agree.

Patrick and I lived out of a few boxes for a month, in the company of my generous parents. We spent Christmas at their house, but also visiting extended family in High Point and Raleigh. And then we closed on our house! And then we moved into our house! And then we had lovely family visiting our house!

And our house! It’s beautiful. I don’t have pictures yet to show you the whole deal. But you can believe it. It’s better than I could have imagined my house would ever be.

And I’ve been slowly unpacking boxes and arranging shelves (I want to get it as right as I can the first time).

And I’ve been thinking … “I should write!”. But then I’ve been thinking “but I don’t have pictures, and also what do I have to say that’s new? And also I’ve been eating only OK and I haven’t been exercising as much as I’d like to …”

Oh brother. Excuses already? It’s only January 6!

So forget about this blog entry being exceptional or full of beautiful photos or educational or inspirational. It just is.

And isn’t that nice? To just be sometimes? What-will-be-will-be kind of being.

I’ll be back. Soon. Photos. Promise.
