New, New,New

i did not write all summer, did not talk about how it felt to take my nephew home, the problems i was having with my love, my job search, finding a teaching job, finding a new house, and moving to Portland area.

Well, that’s it in a nutshell. I am a 7th/8th grade special ed teacher in the Portland area (Vancouver, WA, actually). I moved into a cute 625 sq ft duplex with hardwood floors in a historic neighborhood. I found good coffee, good beer, an indepedent movie theater, the local food co-op. Things are good in the love area. Very good, i think… after a rough patch where i thought he as going to break up with me (all the rubbish about i don’t deserve you and/or i wil just bring you down…. whatev).

Perhaps i will come back with detail.
