Living Out of Boxes

Wednesday, July 20th, 2005

Thank you to all of you who missed me. :) I feel special! :)

Well, just about all of our things are in our new place. Will be getting cable tomorrow…. sometime between 1 and 3. Ha ha, we all know how that goes…. I’m prepared to be home all day. My little one took a couple of days to get used to the new place. It’s amazing how aware they are of their surroundings at 3 1/2 months old. It’s really hard to believe that in a few days he will be 4 months old!!

Now that the little man rolls over, he does the cutest things in the crib. For instance, the other morning (about 4:30 in the morning…) I found him rolled over onto his tummy sucking his thumb, trying to fall back asleep. He couldn’t do it, but just to know that he’s trying is awesome. Another morning, I heard him stirring, but his eyes hadn’t opened yet so I went to get a drink of water. When I came back, he had rolled over and had grabbed a hold of a plush toy above his head and was playing with it. My husband found him doing the same thing this morning at 5:30. He’s so funny!

For right now, I’m living out of boxes….. well, not entirely. I’ve gotten the majority of the kitchen, the essentials in the bathroom, our CDs and DVDs, and my son’s stuff all put away. Hubby’s and my clothes are in 3 gigantic boxes and it’s sooo much fun digging through them every morning to find clothes to wear to work…

Oh, did I mention I had my interview at Kamehameha last Friday. That was a lot of fun . . . especially when I got lost on the way out!!! Ha ha, I was laughing at myself the whole time. I kept going up the hill when I knew that I needed to go DOWN! All I could think was good thing I didn’t get lost on the way TO the interview. Hopefully I’ll hear back from them this week, but from what I figure, if it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. If not, that’s okay. I’ll substitute again this year and save money on child care. :)

I’ve got my desk all set up in the living room. once summer school is over (2 more days!!), I’ll have the time to focus on my writing. I’d love to post my ideas and drafts here and get some feedback. This is such a great forum and I’m happy to be a part of it!

Have a great day!!!!

“Rentals growing scarce in Honolulu”

The Honolulu Advertiser

Boy, do I feel lucky after reading this article. But if anyone needs a unit after December, there will be a one bedroom openning up in Punahou area! :)

I hope you all had a great weekend and I’ll be moving and moving all week. Hopefully by next week we’ll be settled.

One crappy side note: The new place doesn’t have cable.

Who lives without cable anymore??? Guess I’ll just have to do dial-up and rent dvds from netflix for 6 months!
