If Home is Where the Heart is...

with dan home, i've been sleeping great...though i do wish we had a bigger bed.

i ate my first tomatoes and cucumber from the garden yesterday. delish.

so i said goodbye to my family's second house this weekend. they are moving tomorrow (just found that out this weekend). it was bad, bad, bad, and i'm seriously afraid. pulling into the driveway on saturday i saw the dumpster my father rented. thought it's essential to purge, and considering my mother was a hoard-er, it was still incredibly difficult to see so much of the stuff we lived with in the trash--particulary stuff that could have easily been sold at a tag sale. i know peter has had a really difficult time with it.

so i rummaged through the dumpster to find my baby book and tons of pictures from our summers in New Hampshire. of course, most of the pictures that were thrown away were of me. oh well, i'm not a big fan of him either.

dan and i couldnt' find a van or truck to rent for this past weekend - with college moving weekend and all -- so that means we have to go to kathy the loser's house to pick up the remaining furniture. she will die of lung cancer...with all of those marlboro red 100's she smokes. (yes, i'm a very angry person.)

i've been cleaning house here at 10 fairview square - books, clothes, duplicate kitchen goods. with the new batch of furniture coming in and a 4 box collection of family photos coming in - dan and i are out of room. the place is looking pretty good.

preparing for the grandma and cousin Ally visit on Thursday. nervous about that to.

Signing off.
