Inspired

Well, I read someone's blog and it inspired me to start writing again. I want to get back into writing and hope I can do so. Now my head is full of things to write about.
Wow, the last few weeks of my life have been so crazy...I moved into a new condo in downtown Memphis over Thanksgiving. My grandmother passed away two weeks later. We have been working on her house trying to sort through 50 years of memories. My sister in law is due with the first grandchild in the family (which is exciting and yet stressful for me). My job has been really crazy this year with me traveling 2-3 weeks/month...and you wonder why I am still single.

Craziness...

Anyway, I started the morning in a really bad mood. I think part of it was I was tired and we had to get up early to drive to Humboldt for my sister in law (B's) baby shower. After the shower, we went to my grandmother's house to help clean out closets and pack things up. I know this sounds strange, but my mood got better (I guess because I felt useful). It is amazing how much needs to be done and I know what I will be doing over my Christmas vacation. We packed up my sister's (C's) SUV with things from my grandmother's and came home to Memphis. Now C and I are sitting on our couches decompressing before heading out to another Christmas party (party #4). The party should be fun. It is with downtown locals, which is great since I just moved downtown.

People have asked me how much I like living downtown. My answer- I think I love it. My life has been so crazy this past month, that I haven't been able to just enjoy being downtown (hanging out at the coffee shop, checking out local stores, etc.) Hopefully that will come...soon.
