day one

today's my first day going back to college!!
and i'm a scared little bunny, but i'm NOT going to let my anxiety get the best of me on this one...
especially since i had a lovely long weekend.
i finally got around to doing some things on my list:
after THREE trips to various jacksonville public libraries, i finally found and began reading
The Dance of Anger by Harriet Lerner
and Emma by Jane Austen
i also got back on the knitting. there are many, many works that have been in progress for far too long. nevertheless, i knit a few stitches - it's just like riding a bike. :) and this time, i vow that i'll do it on my own timeline, with NO pressure from anyone. it's my time to relax, breathe and just be - no one's going to turn such a peaceful, restful thing into a deadline-driven, stress inducing headache again.
i saw a few movies with my Guy...
Sherlock Holmes, Avatar, It's Complicated (in theatres)
we also watched An Inconvenient Truth at home.
there was lots of eating take-out, lots of shopping for random whosits and whatnots, and some moonstone mala beads - to aid in much needed serenity, and went to church with the fam.
Guy checked a couple of things off of the honeydo list here at my apt (how lucky am i?)
including but not limited to some window treating, pics soon...
oh, and there was also come good ole fashioned home cookin'!
i attempted to make a little of this and a little of that.
it was SO MUCH fun!
le sigh... today it's back to work & restarting school...
let the adventure begin!!
