This Week



This week:
-Packing a little bit every day things we do not use on a daily basis.
-Bridesmaids shenanigans at the brides engagement party. We don't sit still.
-Visits to the greyhound adoption organization to pet some lazy dogs. I may have made friends with a three year old girl with black fur and the friendliest demeanor.
-Eating popcorn and watching scary movies late at night.
-Driving by our new house and enjoying the new neighborhood, imaging all the tree-shaded walks that will be had in the evenings.
-Drinking tea 3-5 times a day, just to soothe my nerves about moving. I rotate between hibiscus tea that tastes like summer time and earl grey that reminds me of winter mornings with my aunt in New Jersey.
-Streaming the World Cup and thoroughly enjoying the sports spectacle.
-Never unpacking my overnight bag since it feels like I just got back from Corning, now we're off to Buffalo and Canada, and the weekend after that, we're off to South Florida. Bon voyage!

  1. sounds like a great week!
    i'm so pissed off this year, because i can't keep up to World Cup. it's the first time that i don't follow it up. i have early schedule of work and due to the time difference i cannot keep up all night. time zone sucks in time like this! ha.

    1. yes, an earthy green tea reminds me of the "chimarrao" tea that we drink in brazil :) i don't know how i manage to always be going but i am definitely looking forward to stopping and enjoying a weekend to chill. but with the move, i don't see that happening for a little while. :(

  6. Wow what a wonderfully full week! Congrats on a new house—how exciting (and I'm sure overwhelming at times)! I love that you visit your new neighborhood just to drive by—I would totally do the same thing! Best of luck on your move :)
