Well we've moved. "Settled in" is an ongoing process. (Thanks for all the helpful advice! Just teasing.) The two key points of interest right now are:

1 Are the friends we make as very young children, to remain our best and deepest friendships? A youthful closeness is very deep. My boys are trying to recreate the feeling with kids they have just met. Any words of wisdaom to impart to them would be appreciated.

2. "New home-new habits" Has anyone ever survived the 30 day challenge? New habits that I would like to create, I am dragging through, for the next month, hoping that these actions will infact become a lifestyle, as the experts claim they well. Anyone want to join me?

One (sad) action is making sure that my bed is made (early.) Especially if my husband is the last one up. My bed may go a full day untidied. I like walking in to a pretty, organized, private space. This aids my ability to gain refuge from "My space" otherwise it's just an area of "More chores."
