Kimbo the Housewife

My parents came over yesterday afternoon and it was so nice to see them, and to be able to show them around my new place. I miss them a lot, I am so used to seeing them everyday, so this is definitely an adjustment, but I have to admit, I do like being able to have space to spread out my things. I also find that I can't wait to wake up in the morning so I can putter around here. I have all the boxes unpacked, now I am just working on organizing and decorating. I'm getting into a new routine around here, waking up in the morning and showering, then making sure the kitchen is clean, maybe do some laundry, straighten up anything else from the night before, and then work on getting things put away. I'm like a little housewife, and I have to admit, this is definitely my thing. I have always been a homebody, and a nurturer, so I find being able to have a home of my own and take care of things fulfills a need I have always had.

The one thing I am enjoying is checking out all the different people that live here. I've seen people in very bizarre outfits and behaviors, and I am getting to know which people are my neighbors, even though I haven't met any. Human nature is very fascinating.

Phil should be home from work soon. He had to be at work at 3am today, working all the way our in Avondale, which is about an hour away. So he was up and out the door by 2am. I thought I would have a had time sleeping when he left, being that I am still getting used to the place, but I slept really well. I've been working hard around here, so at night I am very tired. I know that when he gets home he is going to be so tired, so he will most likely take a nap for a few hours. But he was excited to see football will be on tonight, and plans on making his guacamole for the game. Its fun to be able to do that sort of stuff together. Last night, Drum Corp World Championships was on and he watched it with me, so tonight will be football night. We make a good team, I am a very lucky girl.

OK, time to start folding the laundry and working on getting my desk put together and my desktop computer set up. Have a great day!
