Hello!

Hi Everyone! I apologize for the little blogging break. It was unintended, I assure you. It was probably due to the busy domestic diva I have become as well as the lack of internet at my home. But, AT&T made a little trip out last weekend so I am good to go now! Thanks, U-Verse!

I can hardly believe it is already Thanksgiving week -- it does not feel like the holidays to me at all. Could be because this entire year has been a complete and utter blur. I've just sailed along. I am still however trying to take in the holidays all that I can -- starting with buying my first Christmas tree that is already up! 

I am really enjoying Atlanta and meeting some fun people! I am learning to be patient knowing that making friends will take time... I am trying not to be a hermit (which can be easy for me to do) and making myself get out more. It is paying off.

My job is going fantastic. I work with the most amazing people who are becoming fast friends. I seriously drive with my foot on the gas pedal each morning -- that is something rare and not to be taken for granted for I have never experienced that before. I love what I do and who I do it with. "Hello" to some co-workers who are reading this now. Yes, they know about my blog and I am perfectly okay with that! 

I am staying in Atlanta this Thanksgiving and we are... ready? Going out to eat! Ah! Some of you are horrified, I'm sure, but I love it -- no dishes. Christmas is the bigger holiday in my family anyway. 

Below are some photos of my house thus far... the last room (and most expensive I'm sure) is the living room, being why there are no photos of that yet. I got 4 rooms painted last week and will have 3 more painted in December!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and I will be back next week with a weekend re-cap! 

Upstairs deck off the master bedroom -- I need some rocking chairs! 

Last week I got to see one of my favorite bands, Dave Matthews Band, in concert in Atlanta! It was so fun!

Lastly, I was excited to write again for Lynchburg Living magazine (holiday issue) -- my article is titled, "Winter White!" I am writing for the January/February issue as well!
