“Happy Hour” and My New Home
March 20th, 2009 by Robyn
I’ve been working at home. Chaos. :-P Today I went to the warehouse/office to work and it was nice and conducive. I worked. After work we had a ‘happy-hour’ to celebrate the end of a week. This time it was at home (where I just moved from), and everyone participated–kids and all. (No, kids are not really into ‘happy hour’, they just like to run around while their parents are preoccupied.)
It was funny going back to my old house. Dexter was happy to see me, he pranced around with a big smile on his ‘face’. I felt awkward, and not… Don’t know how to properly describe the feeling of being back in a place with a lot of memories but not really belonging there any longer.
My new home is quite nice. There are a few improvements needed, and we’re onto them. It’s nice being closer to town yet still in a nice location. Lots less people here which is different. It’s nice in a way, more spontaneous.
Heard some good news about Claire’s piano. We were thinking of discontinuing her classes, mainly ’cause its about an hour away, and she can’t travel there by herself yet so its an investment in time. But her teacher asked if she could continue, apparently she has potential. Nice.
I had wondered about that. She picked up some piano books from someone’s leftovers and she randomly started playing songs that she’d never heard or played before. It surprised me as it’s not that easy to do.
Chris is invited to a dance concert tomorrow–the guys she’ll be dancing with. I’m going, and will most likely take Claire and Gabe along too. Looking forward to Chris starting dance classes, she begins at the end of this month.
Rambling. But that’s my day. 
It was good to have you — woohoo!
I know the feeling about going back… :S
