Niles and I flew to PA November 2nd into Philadelphia and drove to Wyalusing to spend a week with his family. We played in the leaves, visited a winery, played cards with his siblings, and had a blast petting horses! It was a quick week and then we were off to my grandparents cabin in East Waterford PA. We stayed a quick night reminiscing with my grandparents and taking hikes through the woods till we were off to DuBois PA. Niles stayed the rest of his time in PA at my mothers house helping me get settled in, unpacking, and raking leaves. My brothers came for a weekend to help Niles and I finish the huge job and they then took him to the airport on November 15th. Niles is now in New Mexico and starts his school on Monday the first of December.
For the past week and a half, since Niles has left, I've been getting into a new routine. Helping Dorian adjust to the move and get used to what she can and can not do. Setting new rules and a a new sense of security for myself and the girls. Getting accustomed to being the one to get up with Addeline every night and still get enough sleep to keep up with Dorian all day. Trying to get both girls on the same sleeping schedule (almost accomplished this goal). Baby proofing my mothers house, and fixing the things Dorian has already broke. As well as trying to rekindle friendships that have slipped away by not being present the past two years.
So for this and much more I have not had time to blog! ha ha ha Here is the recap of pictures I promised to post three weeks ago!! ENJOY!!!
As for us here in PA, it is so nice to be around friends and family all of the time. It hasn't been easy but is getting easier as each day passes. A lot to get used to in a short period of time, and is very stressful....but wouldn't change the decision to leave New Mexico early. We will find the little things that make it better to live here, my mother and I will eventually compromise on the little things that don't seem to click between us, and time will fly! Soon enough this period of time will be over and we will be looking for another house to live in, in a new state and beginning this process all over again!
So to the stress, the fatigue, and the anxiousness of moving back to PA...I say that we are now ready to move on with our lives and make the best of the situation we are in. I always go through a period of time (about 2 weeks) when Niles leaves that I feel like I can't do things. I don't know why I do this, but I feel that Niles is the only one that can handle certain things and I feel weak without my right hand man next to me. But once that period is over I feel like I can take on the world and can do anything with out any help. Well my weak period is over and I am ready to move on and Take on the world!!! YAY!
I will keep you all posted on how we are doing with the move...and no word yet on where we are moving! As soon as I know you will all know!
Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone!!!
