Home Again


Aaaahhhh.....we're home.


This picture isn't from tonight, it's actually from BatFest (about a month ago) - but it's such a great Austin picture of our lake. I've almost stopped saying "Town Lake" and started saying "Lady Bird Lake" - but it will take a while for that to really be part of my vocabulary. I always thought Lady Bird hung the moon so I'm all for the new name.

It's so funny because while I was in Maine, I kept asking my husband if maybe we could move there. (The answer, in case you're wondering was: "No. And if you think you're cold now...you don't want to be here in January.") Now that I'm home, I know I'm right where I need to be. I feel that way even with the pervasive FUNK that's in our house from some animal that decided to die somewhere in our walls while we were away. (Lovely...)

So at the risk of sounding like some cheesy country singer - Thank Heaven for Austin, Texas - dead critters, live mosquitoes, warm winters, and all.
