Swimming. 
Laughing.
Listening to and making music. 
Being  sick. Oh, dear. I have strep. Again.
Growing and  buying new shoes and clothes (Ziggy doing the growing, me doing the  buying.)
Going to the Y.
Visiting with friends.
Reading.  Playing board games. Painting pictures on brown paper bags.
Preparing  for school: mine, the Mister's, and Ziggy's. 
Looking for a job. 
Visiting  and playing and eating and having a big time with family at North  Topsail Beach in North Carolina.
Retracing some of our honeymoon  path (thanks, Babe) on the way home from the beach.
Visiting the  doctor's office.
Cooking up and serving beautiful CSA meat, eggs  and produce.
Sorting through mail.
Picking up prescriptions.
Taking  vitamins, drinking lots of water, sleeping extra.
Watching  Star Wars.
Talking to FEMA.
Finally connecting with the  insurance adjuster about my damaged wagon from the May accident.
Arranging  for repair of said vehicle and rental vehicle during its repair.
Really  coming to understand that the sickness is mold influenced and that the  flood just keeps on giving.
Looking for a new place to call home.
Sorting  through scam listings of rental homes.
Finding and  signing a lease on a sweet little square brick home with three bedrooms  (the upstairs for the boy's slumber and play quarters, the smallest  bedroom as a mini man-cave for the Mister's office and CDs and comics  and bits and bobs, the other for the love nest,) a dining room (which  we've not had for three years now,) two full bathrooms (!!!), a deck,  more kitchen space than I've had in ages, with a dishwasher, even, a  first.
Packing, sorting, purging. Dreaming paint  colors and moving furniture in the imagination. Thinking home.
