Funny enough though I don't seem to be missing any essential items for our day to day lives. It does feel a bit like Christmas when we come across something unexpected and it makes me smile.<br />New routines are developing too, so far so good - my daily commute is less than half of what it used to be and this includes dropping baby off with his lovely 'day-mom' in the morning.<br />Phoenix seems to be adjusting well to the new school, even though he already encountered some run-ins with some not so nice kids - mainly girls which are from now on referred to as 'tussies'. He likes his new teacher, which for a change seems to be one that actually does give a damn, a refreshing perspective.<br /><br />that's all the update I have for now - more to comeLydiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09445876803925221962noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868701628493761031.post-25679255520193757152010-03-17T09:18:00.003+01:002010-03-17T09:24:22.353+01:00please be patientHi all<br /><br />This moving process is taking the last bit of energy out of me.
