No Time to Rest (or Blog)




We have been INSANELY busy! We've moved into our apartment, and since we both work full time, we haven't had adequate time to unpack. It looks like a tornado went through our place, and every night after work and all weekend, we've been trying to find places for everything. It's very slowly starting to look like a home, but there are still boxes all over the place with towels, spatulas, purses, and random household items hanging out of them. We've got a long way to go.


Our new address:

1023 Persimmon Tree Circle

Bloomington, Indiana

47403


We've been so consumed with moving and unpacking that we haven't been eating dinner until 9:30 or 10:00 at night. We know that's normal dinner time for Dominicans, but it's never been normal for us. Yesterday, we finally got our Internet and cable hooked up, so we should be more active on the world wide web.


With the help of my younger brother, Jesse, we built our own entertainment center. Jesse welded the metal frame together, and we stained, sanded, and assembled the wood part. It was a lot more work than we expected, but now we feel like we've really invested in that particular piece of furniture.

congrats on the move in and having your own place! We need to hang out when life slows down. I think tim and I still owe you a cookout from BEFORE you moved to the DR!

Hi Claire! I lost your email address and phone number so I thought I'd better give you mine: helmore@gmail.com and 812.340.4455. Give me a call when you're less busy, or if you need any help. It's great to have you back in town.
