First Day

At 6:39pm, I had to fight the urge to put on my pajamas and climb into bed.  Today was my first day of work and I'm exhausted.  Granted, we had Hindi class at 7:30am so we were up even earlier than normal.  I also blame Stewart.  He keeps supplying our house with new books to read.  I'm currently reading one that I'm not thrilled about but sticking with in hopes that it gets better.  I think the fact that I'm a third of the way done and it's not any better is not a good sign.

Anyway, our life is changing.  I know I'll adjust to the new routine over the next week or so.  I will try to keep up with our blog as best as I can.  As for now, nothing exciting is happening.  Actually, I guess it is.  Tomorrow we pick up Stewart's new suit and shirts.  And the painters started today.  We're only painting one room in our house ... for now.  We'll see how this goes before we start taking on more projects.  Before we even think about painting other rooms, I want to get curtains to help liven up the place and maybe some sofa covers or at least throw pillows.  Right now, our sofas don't have anything on them and the fabric is a waffle weave pattern.  You can easily tell if I've been laying down on the sofa!  This needs to change.

Okay, I really am tired so I'm going to go crawl into bed.  I don't care that it's only 8:23pm!

What books have you read? I need a good new one. I think it would be nice to read the same book half way across the world from each other!!

That would be awesome! I read Sex and Sunsets - it was weird but okay for a beach read. Currently, I'm reading The Zookeeper's Wife which is a true story. The author is just killing me with all the ridiculous descriptions. I've got So Much For That by Lionel Shriver set aside for my next one. The back looked interesting. Look it up and tell me what you think.
