Listing

I am out of my comfort zone, but somehow relaxed and content at all that is happening around me. We have today and tomorrow and cleaning on Thursday and then we go. In honor of our new home, I wish to make a list. Remember, making lists makes me happy. I figure I can top-off my happy tank now and I'll just be bursting with happiness.

THINGS I ALREADY LOVE ABOUT SOUTH CAROLINA:

1. A husband within a close proximity.

2. Said it before, sayin' it again- Real air conditioning.

3. Not having to read Payless Shoe Source window signs in Spanish. Only Spanish at some stores. it will be nice. I am not opposed to Spanish, I speak some Spanish, but seriously, all the signs?

4. Not having to fix things around our house. Oh, you have no idea. I could make a whole list of just things I hate fixing around the house. (among those things-anything requiring the use of a cordless drill, weed-eaters [however, lawn mowers are ok], baseboards [my own personal hell], jobs requiring epoxy or any other type of bonding agent, installing bathroom fixtures, holding electrical wire nuts for Travis, etc.)

5. Someone else can change the light bulbs. I hate changing light bulbs and with the advent of the more costly, but so much longer lasting compact flourescents, I do light bulb changing much less frequently, but still, I hate changing them regardless of the intervals in between changings.

6. Another driver and another vehicle. Heaven.

7. The husband thing.

8. Our place is about 10 minutes from post, like here in Texas, but the grocery stores, WalMart, and every other convenience is even closer than they are to us here. I'm talking right across the street close.

9. Close to old friends and family.

10. There's a full-service fitness center at the apartment complex, no driving required!See, happy happy!
