I live!

I got here at around 8:30. There is a huge Lowe's on the corner opposite the turn to my parents' street. It lights up the night like a giant, brilliant castle. I was rather shocked.

I got settled in and then came over to AJ's to spend time with Connor, and now I'm in AJ's basement on AJ's computer making this post. I didn't even ask permission! But he very nicely let me disable cookies so I could log into Blogger.

Aunt Carol, Aunt Bev and Carl should be arriving soon, I assume...they are driving down from Illinois.

Important tip: if you're going to be driving all day, do not have Burger King's Angus burger, fries, and a chocolate shake right before you leave. Just trust me on this one.
