T and I arrived back in SC late Friday night. It feels good to be back in our own house. Although it feels a little empty already- I'm not really sure why. The trip went well. It was so great to get to spend more time with the family. We also got to explore Fishers a little more and made us both more excited about calling it home. We narrowed down our house search to five but still have to wait for this one to rent before we can do anything. We are trying not to get too attached to one just in case it isn't available anymore when we are. T definitely has his favorite and I'm starting to like it more and more. It's been on the market for awhile now. Hopefully it will stay there until we can make an offer. It's an older home and needs a lot of updating- much like this one did when we bought it.
Saturday we went to the Old Sheldon Church Ruins with Penny and Colin. A place we've been wanting to explore. It's absolutely beautiful. If you live in the area and haven't seen it yet- do so. Today Jack and Jan are visiting- lots of relaxing and enjoying each others company. T is working on one of his many projects. I start chemo on Wednesday. We weren't sure what day we would be back so I'm starting it a little later in the week than usual. I'm going to go in tomorrow to make sure I don't need anything (blood/platelets) beforehand. I pray I don't- especially after last time. So not fun.

I've been reading Eckhart Tolle's book A New Earth (and listening to it on CD with T). Wow. Love it. I haven't had a chance yet to listen to the podcast from Oprah's online class since we were away- really looking forward to that. It's very dense material and will take a lot of rereading and listening. If you've read it or are in the process you will know what I'm talking about. We also watched Into The Wild tonight (based on a true story and also a book)- loved it too. Took away a lot of things from it.....'Happiness is only real when shared'- one of the many.

Here's to a great week!

Alison, you have to read Into the Wild. I read it after I saw the movie (I kind of wish I read it before), but it was sooo good. I read it in 2 hours. I loved the movie too, and I'm reading a New Earth right now too! I did watch Oprah's podcast and there's this online workbook thing you do too... Anyways, I think we like the same movies/books! Haha!
I'm reading A New Earth and watching the classes on Oprah's site as well. Loving it so far, though I'm not very far into it. Just changed my work schedule to 10 hour days, and I'm so tired when I get home. :)
Loved the movie Into the Wild. But I felt so sad after watching it...it really stayed with me for quite awhile after watching.
Good luck with the house renting!
"Happiness is only real when shared." So true. I like that.
