Well we are finally here, the u-haul is unloaded and the unpacking begins. There are certain things that are going to take a while to get used to. For starters, the New England accent. I could hardly understand what the gentleman at the grocery store said as he was directing me to the aisle with plastic forks. Second, the lack of a fence around the yard. It was real nice to be able to let the dog out whenever he scratched at the door. How we actually need to hook him to a leash and take a stroll around the block, at least there is extra exercise involved. (However, having to pick-up the fecal matter with a plastic bag is kind of a downer.) The roads up here are, shale we say, a cluster f***. I think I could live here for 15 years and still get lost, there is no rhyme or reason to half the roads here. What I find to be amazing though is how much this place feels like home. Sherry and I were discussing this evening how she feels like this is a vacation, but I don’t feel that way. I feel like this is where I belong, like this is home. Maybe my thoughts will change when snow starts to fall in a few months, but right now this feels right. I am heading into my classroom this week to begin set-up, I will be sure to post pictures of my progress.
