Moving, School, and Everything Else...

Well, for those of you who are wondering--yes, I am still alive and yes--I am still going to keep up with this blog.

Finally--I am writing to you all on my own computer, in our own apartment with working internet!!

A lot has gone on, and once again instead of trying to work backwards, I am going to try to continue forward--and slowly fill in the gaps as I can. I have found some old poetry I think I am going to use to fill up some of those days...fun stuff!

But moving forward--right now I am sitting in our apartment, on my lovely couch with the kids nearby, homework strewn about as I procrastinate...very VERY cold winter outside, and all the warmth of love inside.

Last weekend Ryan and I moved into our first apartment together. We found a lovely little place in Louisville, and we are still unpacking, organizing and weeding out all the stuff we don't need. It is so nice to have our own place--no running back and forth to see each other, we can plan our lives together rather than trying to fit our crazy schedules around each others...

The kids are loving it--they are so happy to have their own space again! They have a huge sliding glass door/window to observe the open space we back to, and 2 large windows in the bedroom. No more basement windows for these kids!! Kairi finally got better--after 2 rounds of antibiotics and almost 6 weeks. No more joker kitty for her, poor little girl. Sora wasn't doing so well before his last shot--he dropped to 8.6 pounds, which is not bad for a cat--but he is a very long and tall kitty. It would be kind of like Shaq weighing 170 pounds. But he has put weight back on--and we are going to give him his next shot one week earlier this time, hopefully that will help keep him on top of it all.

All in all, although it is a *balmy* 3 degrees out (it started at -17 today), everything is great. I am working a lot of hours at TCS, taking 3 classes in working towards my MPA and living with my best friend.

Oh...and I can't remember if I have mentioned it...but we're getting married June 28th this year.
