1. Summer here is colder and more rainy than any day we have had in SoCal since like 2007
2. I can utilize my iPhone and the Wifi to find any and everything at an instant. Some important items, in no particular order are:
How to make play dough
How to make Ratatouille
How to make pie crust, pie, numerous casseroles
What to do for a little boy with a belly ache
Where to find local mountain bike tracks
What exactly is 320 grams in cups???
How to drink vinegar to get rid of a chest/head cold
Etc....etc....etc...
3. The word LOVELY at home is used quite sarcastically. Here, it is a true fact. "That dinner was lovely. That family is just lovely." Odd...
4. Either it is the hair, the hot pink I wear, or the fact I am out running in gale force winds, but the farmers all stare at me.
5. Thanksgiving dinner will be Saturday, and we will call it a feed.
One of the coolest things I have come across is a mountain biking club. I found them online before I left and they are rad! I met up with them on Wednesday night in the park and they have a whole lot of junior riders! My favorite! We did cool skills and some hot laps on a "Short track" type course. Now that was some solid effort! Plans are in the works for the Real Deal single track expedition on Sunday!! Woop Woop!!
As for the sister, things are on the Up and Up. We have had a handful of "firsts" while I have been here which is really cool. Its full-on over here making meals, cleaning up, taking care of the 2 and 4 year old as "best" I can, although the one diaper change I got to do ended up with quite the altercation with a 2 year old. Yikes. I will stay in the kitchen!!
I will create another blog when I get home of links and photos, for some reason can't get them on here!
The sun is out and the wind is calm, better snag this opportunity to go for a run!
