On My Own

I don't know if life gets much better than this. It's been the most amazing week-and-a-half of my life. Where do I start describing all that's happened?

I've slept, read, watched shows and movies, read curriculum's, listened to music, cooked, cleaned, Facebooked, Pinterested, Twittered, read LOTS of articles, die-cut, laminated, cut out all the laminated die-cut, started organizing my classroom, got keys to my school and classroom, met coworkers, started building relationships, worked-out, Skyped, texted, called, wrote, and ate.

I've driven around the town visiting churches, grocery stores, stores, coffee shops, opening bank accounts, finding hiking trails, and figuring out how all the roads connect.

I'll wake up and smile since I'm all alone in my own apartment. I'll be working on school stuff or reading an article, and it will hit me again. I'll be explaining, again, that I moved 3.5 hours north of my family to start my life as an adult, and my heart just jumps with all of the excitement.

I can't say that I haven't relaxed and there have been a couple days where I've only left my apartment to check my mail, but oh, it's been good, so, so good.
