Chris arrives.

Hello everyone.

I am sipping one of the best Chai Lattes I have had. And I love my Chai. I know Chai. This is glorious Chai.

But I suppose it is more important to tell you that Chris arrived yesterday around four, safe and sound. We took a walk around so he could see all the businesses and shops and neighborhood. We bought fresh Italian bread at the local Bakery and had it with dinner (pasta and salad). He really loves being in walking distance of EVERYTHING.

Since then we have accomplished a lot. We bought more food in the strip district, where Munster cheese is 3.70 a pound, and meat is good and cheap at Wholey's. We then got more odds and ends at a discount grocery for great prices. I made my third trip to Target and got a desk and more curtains. And we got a scratching post for Chris' cat.

Since then Chris has been very busy putting things together, such as my desk, the futon, our new dvd rack, more curtain rod... things. He's pretty handy with tools. Which i a relief because while I could manage I would dread every second!

I learned how to make mushroom Ramen noodles actually very tasty by adding fresh veggies, today I added actually fresh mushrooms and matchstick carrots and I'm thinking broccoli would have been good too. This is exciting.

So we've had a busy day. Also set up an appointment to get internet in the house on Friday. Luckily I am a very close walk to a whole slew of coffee places with free wifi. Which is where I am now. I prefer this place to Starbucks, it's much bigger, tons of outlets and as you now know- a great chai latte.

So I am now updating once again, and searching for any and all information about my orientation tomorrow.And trying to figure out the bus schedule! Wish me luck, I can't help but be a bit nervous!

Okay, a lot nervous. I shall tell everyone all about it tomorrow. Or Friday.

Better get back home soon for dinner.
