How many of us say to ourselves, this is a fresh start! Or... this is day one! Well for us, it is definitely day one of our new adventure. New house, new city, new jobs, new routines, even a new workout plan. It's all very exciting and very exhausting. Since it has been awhile since I've been the "new girl" anywhere, I'm a bit nervous about how I will fit in to the social circles at work. I don't come across as a girly girl most times. I have a motorcycle, I have tattoos, I lift weights, but once you get to know me, you'll see that I have the most extensive MAC makeup collection north of Vancouver, I love most things girly and I have even been known to rock the occasional tea-party-ish dress! Hmmm.... this town better watch out.
Now for the house.... Ahhh, the antics in my new kitchen are something to behold. I'm getting used to a gas stove and oven, which I have never used before. My first pizza was burnt beyond recognition (sorry hon!) but it's getting better! I'll be sure to post some of my new creations once I get started.
Decorating has actually been more of a challenge that I thought. Initially, I figured that everything from our old house would translate so well into the new house, office stuff goes in the office, den stuff goes in the den, closet stuff goes in...well, the closet. Oh wait, we don't have a hall closet? Ummm, okay... and what do you mean that doesn't fit there?! Sheesh... it's taken some Martha Stewart-like rearranging and folding skills to fit into what we thought was a bigger walk-in closet. However, mission accomplished. Bring it on Martha.
