my fav. adele song. EVER

Adele - Someone Like You (Live)

I went from 'Fabulous Unhappy People' to 'Life of the Party' to 'Horses ETC'.

Not a bad route, right? Better than Dive Bars and Serial Killers...haha

P.S. I think New York is Fabulous Unhappy People yet I see Snooki's name around there which makes me think of Jersey yet I went to school with her..hmm..thoughts?

Quotes of the day

You beliefs don't make you a better person, your behavior does.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be older....This shit is not what I expected.

May the bridges I burn light the way

How people treat you is their Karma...how you react is YOURS

I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.~ Marilyn Monroe

Replace fear of the unknown with curiosity

I AM IN LOVE WITH WHAT WE ARE

If it's important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse

LIFE BEGINS AT THE END OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE

(TRUTH!!!)

Hey All.

Sorry there has not been much activity. We left California Feb. 25th and arrived to Indiana Feb 29th (a leap day!) We took the southern route, stopping in Las Vegas, Flagstaff, AZ, Amarillo, TX and Joplin, MO . The drive was pretty. We passed the Hoover Dam, drove through the desert and were about 20 miles north of a tornado. We got into Indianapolis and had dinner with the family. Thursday we headed up to Fort Wayne, signed our lease and spent the rest of the weekend setting our apartment up. We live in an apartment community called Willows of Coventry. It's surrounded by willow trees and cherry blossom trees. We live about one mile from the YMCA that we can bike to (kind of like Monterey) and Joe's job is less than 5 minutes away in car (better than Salinas!) I spent my first week driving around the city getting a library card at the awesome Allen County Public Library, stopping at the visitor's center and applying to jobs. I then went to Indianapolis for a week to help out Linda whom had surgery. She's feeling much better and taking it day by day. I found a soccer league I am going to join and sent in my application to find opportunities to volunteer in the city. Fort Wayne is definitely not the Hudson Valley or Monterey California but there is plenty to do and a new life to begin. California was all about crossing off things on my bucket list. We did so much out there that I will forever cherish. Fort Wayne is a new step into my adulthood creating a beautiful clear future with the experiences of the past guiding me. I am learning to enjoy the present. There is beauty anywhere. You just have to open your eyes to see it. I am heading to NY next week for a visit and Easter. I can't wait to see my family and friends and of course my true love (besides Joe) The GUNKS!

P.S. Our new address is

5087 Coventry Parkway

Fort Wayne, IN 46804

Song of the Day...for you DV8

I really miss the Hudson Valley....it's my identity. or was. and now it's time to find a new one. which is inspiring and dreadful at the same time.

California was never a final destination. It was a resting stop.

California...Rest in Peace
