month two



another month bites the dust. hard to believe. i was about to write that month two has been better to us, but i think i'm just better understanding my life here, better aware. i hope not so much that things have changed, but that i am changing... i hope.

month two's goings and comings, triumphs and failures:

haven't heard the moaning dog next door as often because of the loud heaters.
gone running less for what i blame to be bad weather, but its just an excuse.
hosted our first visitors.
no more anxiety attacks over grocery shopping.
first decoration in our home appeared this month: a purple candle.
connected with family less this month.
seen some honest belgian winter weather. yuck.
spotted the first christmas decorations in stores this week: saint nicholas clad in white chocolate. therefore turned on the christmas tunes. with no halloween or thanksgiving holidays here, i am justified in my actions, right?
really come to love the feeling on pay day.
living off a suitcase of familiarity after all my outfits are now on cycle two.
gvideo-ed with our families for the first time this month. sore cheeks for ten minutes afterward.
