To the point where I put my little seedlings out and LAST WEEK we had a freeze and I lost our baby cucumbers.
One of the things we agreed to before moving to rural-ish Pennsylvania was that we wouldn't let ourselves feel stuck here. After a lifetime of travel, buying a house here and working from home has a real risk of causing our lives - or what we've come to understand as our lives - to come to a screeching halt. Our house is a new build, so at least it doesn't need repairs and basic maintenance is minimal 6 months in. We are going to take care of the yard this year, so, watch this space.
The early months felt easy as trips to Philadelphia were built in every couple of weeks for work. It's an amazing walkable city. Since moving here we've done a couple trips down to DC for Marymount stuff, a weekend to Pittsburgh where we met up with Nicholas for a Caps-Pens game, a weekend in Buffalo/Niagara Falls (the Canadian side) for a Caps-Sabres game, and a weekend to Atlanta to see Becca, Max, and Paul McCartney. We've gone ahead and planned the rest of the year too, so again, watch this space. Of course, our goal is to regularly see our kids, and Ian's future pilot license will go towards that.
I probably shouldn't attempt to write posts on a Sunday night. Next month we'll have a fun update.
