Home Sweet? Home

Monday we drove back home and it still seems so weird to me that we're no longer on the boat.  While I'm completely ensconced here, I still feel like something is missing.

Last year I made a post about how I felt about leaving the boat to go home, but I feel this year has been so much harder because of all the lovely people I got to meet.  Some I will definitely be seeing again, but many will be going their own ways and I probably won't get to hear from them ever again.

This summer really was a great experience for me and I'm definitely sad it's over.  It does make me that much more excited for what's in store for next year, although I know we won't get to meet nearly as many people since we'll be traveling so much.

Moving home was a big push for me to get a lot done, though too.  For example, my room has been a huge mess for probably around 3 years.  Kind of crazy and definitely not great especially since I do my school work here.  But, the past few days I've spent cleaning and it looks great and is far more comfortable.

I do honestly apologize for all the craziness going on around here, I swear we will be back to posting regularly here soon.  I know I say that pretty much every post, but I do mean it!  Thanks for sticking with us through this crazy summer.

For now I'll leave you with some pictures of the lovely Green Bay.

Weekend Update

Monday: I didn't do much, but enjoyed the downtime.

Tuesday: I got up to see a crappy sunrise and wound up changing a tire (with some help) all before 9 am.  I got Starbucks and went shopping, though, so that really made up for it.

Wednesday: I spent the day listening to X and trying to con other people into listening to X.  I really, really, like the album and am super excited for the concert in September.

Thursday: I wrote out our editorial calendar for August.  I wasn't sure if I would get time with everything I'm doing in July, so I figured it would be good to get it out of the now.  I can't wait for you guys to see all the changes we're making!

Friday: I went home with my parents (a 3-hour car ride) and went to my great grandmother's birthday party.  There were relatives I hadn't seen in forever, and even some I'd never met, so it was a lot of fun.  Unfortunately I missed Katie by about an hour.  We drove all the way back up here that night, so it was quite the day.

Saturday: I went down the river for breakfast then wrote for a while upon returning.  The marina had a band performing that night so I sat and watched that which was pretty good.

It was a pretty good week and I am looking forward to leaving for the intensive tomorrow.  Not so much the drive, though.  Five little grins will still be happening though, so make sure you link up!

My First Week in Green Bay Recap!

Today is our seventh day in Green Bay.  It's been a crazy, but incredible week.

Monday: We were on the boat underway for 10 hours, with one short stop for fuel.  When we got here, we pretty much ordered pizza and retired.  Unfortunately it was pretty bad pizza so that wasn't a great first impression, but we're going to just pretend it didn't happen.

Tuesday: We took the dinghy down the river and had lunch at this place called Regata.  It was absolutely incredible.  The food was so good yet we ordered WAY too much and couldn't finish.  The ride back up the river was pretty rough, but we got back fine, after stopping at a few places to explore the town.  We decided to bike to see a little bit more of the town when we got back.

Wednesday: We biked the the Post Office bright and early and set up a PO box.  It won't be too bad of a bike ride to go check it.  We also signed up for a 5k and ordered CAH.

Thursday: We biked to a bakery which wasn't too bad of a ride & their stuff was well worth it.  Later that night we played Cards Against Humanity at the Marina bar with the bar tenders which was fun.

Friday: Friends drove up our car so we no longer have to bike everywhere.

Saturday: We went to the Green Bay Farmers' market which was super cute and SO HUGE.  It was crazy how many booths there were!  I got macaroons which were really good and are already gone.  That afternoon we took the dinghy down the river all the way to the first lock which was a fun ride!

Every time I use "we" I'm referring to my family and I.

All in all, I'm definitely loving Green Bay and am definitely looking forward to spending the summer here!
