I saw this super cute post over on Little Tree Vintage and thought I'd play as well. Life is so much different now than it was a month ago so I think it's a good time for me to reflect also :)

{Currants from the market}

Watching: Well I've been watching more than I had expected to have time to after moving but I guess that's ok. Mostly The Beard and I have been watching tv shows. Currently we're finishing up the last season of Eureka. We've also been watching Falling Skies {ah-mazing!} and The News Room {a brand new show in it's first season. It's been pretty interesting so far, check it out!}. Other than that... we watched HP7.2 the night we got here but that's it.

Eating: Wow. Where to start. We finally just got our oven yesterday but it's still not hooked up. Which means that we've been eating weird meals since we got here. Mostly deli sandwiches actually; and since the farmers market has been good to us we've been living off of fruit smoothies as well. But honestly, we've been eating out A LOT. There are a billion restaurants here and we want to try them all! We are food addicts. Trying new restaurants is literally in our top 1 favorite things to do. We've probably tried 15+ new places and still haven't eaten as the same place twice. Our favorite so far has been this bar/grill around the corner from our apartment called City Side that has awesome burgers. We also ate in Chinatown yesterday and that was pretty good too... except for the 3 whole cooked ducks that stared at me from across the room the entire time...

Thinking about: I've been thinking quite a bit about being here and what it means and how it has effected both The Beard and I. For the most part we're both LOVING it. But there are a few aspects of it which have The Beard a bit more stressed out than he normally is. Which in turn makes me stressed/sad. But we've had several really good conversations the past couple days and I think those will help the stress to be relieved :) Most of my thoughts have been good ones. About how awesome this city is and about how thankful I am to be here. I (both of us actually) was so unhappy where we were before that being here is a dream come true. You know in Tangled when Rapunzel figures out that she's the princes? That's the level of excitement I feel about finally being able to move away from our old lives and into this new one. Indescribable relief and excitement.

Anticipating: Everything that is to come. More adventures in/around our new home. The Beard starting school again. Fall. Winter. Sweaters scarves coats mittens. The release of The Great Gatsby {oh Leo, how I love you}. Eating more good food. New adventures for Yellow Bird + Yellow Beard. Which brings me to...

Working on: I've been working on a subscribe via email feature and a monthly newsletter {both of which are available in my left sidebar now}. I've been working on new things for our home - photos to come of course. Lots of orders which I'm really grateful for as well. And I've been working on new products for the shop, coming soon!

Oh, and the obvious one::: I've been working on unpacking and organizing our new home.

Wishing: First and foremost I've been wishing it wasn't so hot and muggy! I've been wishing we had a functional oven. I've been wishing I could do something to help The Beard be less anxious about starting school again. Other than that I feel like right now all my wishes have come true.

Feeling: SO MANY THINGS. But I think I pretty much covered how I've been feeling in the answers above. To sum up::: Elated about being here. Sad about The Beard being stressed. Joy in the adventures we've been on and anticipation of the ones to come. Yep.
