So this past weekend I finally got a place of my own. I don't think it's really sunk in yet but with the way everyone around me is reacting it's apparently a big deal. My cat is happy albeit a little clingy since it's unfamiliar still. Anywho onto some pictures, looks creepy without any lighting I'm working on that, and getting some more furniture.

Living room/dining area





This is the master. That filing cabinet is a temporary dresser. Classy status.





Kitchen, where all sorts of tasty dishes are waiting to be made.





And this is the guest bedroom/office



Still need to furnish the place but it's a decent start. Also need to get internet hooked up so I can join in on chat again tongue



Anyway, this got me to thinking about things again, as most large decisions do. This "settling in" has reminded me that I shouldn't just go to work, come home, rinse, repeat but try to live more than just a little. It's...a humbling feeling actually. So in honor of that mindset I present this quote by one of my favorite authors.

"You live and learn. At any rate, you live." - Douglas Adams

Trying to do the former instead of simply the latter is tougher than it looks and is about as precarious as setting a sugar high 4 year old with a bat loose in a glass shop. Sometimes the results are spectacular...that is until you have to pick up all the pieces.


With that I'm done for today but I found another one that I just liked and am sure many of you would appreciate.

" Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves." - Albert Einstein


I bid you all adieu.

Hahaa, I cracked up too. I put on the hat and right away she threw her hands to her head as if saying it's her hat. She kept her hands like that til I put them down.

Thank you Asstaint, It really is a lot to take in. I just wish I knew what I could do to help him out. I'm not trained to deal with these things. School is super important. 5th grade is going to be even harder! frown
