Hi Friends! I'm back!
Sorry about the unexpected break! Things have been kind of weird over the last month or so & I haven't much felt like blogging. I spent 2 weeks back home in Brisbane, which was lovely, but leaving made me really sad, and I found it difficult to get used to being so far away again. But I'm getting there. I'm so blessed to have the wonderful friends and family I do. I get by with a little help from my friends.
This week was my 2nd back in Philly, and it was easier than the first. I've been making an effort to do fun things for myself, but also letting myself take breaks and naps. I LOVE naps. I only had 2 nap days this week (I have to get up at 6am every weekday for my job, so once the kids are on the bus I sometimes go back to sleep at ~8am for a few hours), which is pretty good, considering I REALLY wanted to nap on Friday (but didn't).
It's really warming up at the moment, last weekend it was 26 degrees! crazyness. Luckily Tuesday & Wednesday were cool & rainy, so I really loved that! If you're ever in a rainy-day situation, I would suggest that the "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" soundtrack is PERFECT for such listening conditions. It features Jose Gonzalez and Junip, as well as some other lovely songs. I've also been loving Ingrid Michaelson's new album Lights Out. So there's that.
I'm going to do my best to keep this blog more up to date with the bits and pieces I get up to, as well as my incredibly astute (I'm sure) observations about life in Philadelphia. I have LOTS of books and movies I want to share with you.
Lots of love,
Jess
