It's about time...

...for another post!  I've been in England for 10 days and I decided it was time for a real post.  I've tried to write several since I've gotten here, but I'm easily distracted and never finished any of them.  I will get around to posting them eventually but for now, here is a short summary of what has been going on:

Walked all around the area where my school is to get my bearings, and find the necessities!  I got an English phone and am attached at the hip to it...with all 3 of my contacts so I'm expecting calls all the time! haha no not really but it stays with me none-the-less just in case.  I haven't found a place to stay yet, but am hoping the person I'm talking to right now works out. 

I met some great girls and have thoroughly enjoyed spending time with the both of them and their kids.  Strange, I know, because I'm not a fan of kids but I put on my 'big-girl panties' and live in the moment.  Obviously I'm still hanging out with them so I've not been deterred by the kids and I hope it stays that way. 

I have been baking a bit, made banana muffins and banana chocolate chip muffins and shared with my new friends!  I am looking forward to this week and being even more productive....maybe even moving into a flat by this weekend...we shall see.

Now for the thought of the night, and maybe a few song lyrics along the way just because that's the mood I'm in tonight! 

Standing alone looking in the mirror, we see only what we want to see; Standing with someone else beside ya, we see a shared potential we never thought possible.

And now some points of mention-I have realized I thoroughly enjoy the song Jump (For my love) just because of the movie Love Actually....and I'm doubting the need to get back into shape because fat keeps you warmer than muscle and winter might be kind of cold if I have nothing to keep me warm!! 

"Now in the whirl wind of my life is where you presently reside.  Can I pretend you don't exist maybe just for 10 more minutes.  My heart's been broken into two, and rusted from years of disuse. So will you place upon it your hand and will you help it beat again?"  -RA, been stuck in my head all day!

Will post again soon in keeping up with my productive week schedule!  Much love from across the pond and please comment if you have something specific you want to know about!
