Five months and three moves (2 home, 1 work) and my day-to-day is shaping up into my all-time favorite version of itself, ever. No two days are exactly the same, which may be the best part of all.

 I come home to a house that has felt cosy and good and warm and just *right* since the first walk-through. My quirks are such that its quirks work, somehow. Or perhaps it’s the other way around.

Possibilities and responsibilities have never been in better balance. I can only wonder what took me so long to get here. And make the most of every single second, any which way I can. 

Today it was bringing the cheese to Broad Street and getting a brand-new axle out of the deal, producing a cobra cake that I swear was magically charmed into existence, and reveling in friendships that began almost exactly half our lives ago, with people I now get to see all the time. Whose kids I bake birthday cakes for, using the stand mixer their parents gave me all those years ago. Who knew?

People in the world with my same name. I'm related to the other two. So far it's worked out well.
