Seriously.
So we're all in. Well, excepting the bed frame but we're going to do that tomorrow and then THAT'S IT! No more running around town all crazy trying to find a tv, a shelf, stools, a table, etc. It's been a harried 5 days but JC and I have finally furnished and placed everything that we're going to for right now. It's a relief but it's also been fun to pick out things together. I truly feel as if we got a second chance or something. We got a mix of new and used things which I'm glad for- not just because of budget but I think it's important, especially in these times to get as much from others as I can. There's so much STUFF in the world, why not just keep it going around?
I was sitting on our balcony watching people across the street in Esther Short park and I was just hit with an overwhelming sense of appreciation. There was, and not too few words uttered by myself, not a huge fan base in Portland for Vancouver. It's actually quite charming. Like a lot of the country, you can see the economic downturn reflected in the not-so bustling downtown but it's peaceful, safe and fairly convenient.
Tomorrow there's an international festival. The place is hopping!
It's good to be back in the Northwest.
