It just feels so right!

Woah!! I'm FINALLY back in Western New York, at my apartment near Rochester.  I had a wonderful drive back here, and even got a little tan on my left arm :)  It's strange because I forgot how I left my apartment.  I didn't recall whether there was any food whatsoever in the cabinets and refrigerator, or where I left everything in my room, and how EMPTY I had left it!

It's great to be back, so it's a little bittersweet knowing that I am moving out of this place in a month, and probably out of town completely. :/  It's been a great year and a half out in this area, and I'm a little more bummed than I realized I would be about moving back toward my hometown (not that I didn't KNOW I wanted to stay away from there all my life!).  This time, I am (unfortunately) only here until tomorrow evening.  I am substituting in one of the schools out here tomorrow morning, but have to drive back to the Albany area afterwards because I am working there on Wednesday.

Nice surprise though: ...my landlord started painting the house GREEN while I was gone!! My dream of living in a green (not the clear kind) house has come true (partly... and for less than a month...)

(looks a little silly at this point)

Anyway, that's my check-in at this point in the week.  It's Monday, so I'm a little out of it.  I'll write later... maybe tomorrow.
