I'm Still Here

I'm OK.  There's nothing wrong.  Life has been busy.  I've been under the weather.  There's a lot going on that I will soon write about and share with you here.

January went by so fast.  We experienced our first snowstorm in Seattle and realized why this city is paralyzed by any amount of snow.  The city has zero budget to manage snow and ice.  Mark and I had about 4-5 inches total of snow in our neighborhood.  None of the streets around us were plowed including the major streets.  I was shocked.  But, it turns out that they don't have plows here.  The few that they do have are used on the highways.  It was nice because everything literally shut down and Mark didn't have to go to his office for a few days.  We played in the snow and took some long walks.

We've been house hunting, which is a lot of fun.  It's like being a part of house hunters!  We have a great agent who used to be a builder so he's able to help us look not only at the surface but deeper at the foundation and bones of each home and tell us whether it's a good home or not.  We're learning to look beyond the cosmetic and at what makes a quality, long-term home.  It's super fun!

One of my cousins got engaged!

I signed up for an art class that started on February 2.

Things are good.  I just need to get back on track with writing on this blog.  And, I will.  Soon.  I promise this to myself.

Until then I hope that everyone is doing well and enjoying life.
