| Falls park in Downtown Greenville |
So I am sitting here and I want to post something because I know it has been a long time. However, I don't know what to write about exactly. I could sit here and describe my days and the routine I have but that would be somewhat dull. I could try and think of funny stories about life but I don't have a whole lot that are good unless you were there, and it is always awkard to be the one to tell one of those "you had to be there" stories. So it should be interesting to see where exactly this post ends up by the time I finish.
Tonight I had to get out of the house. I had been home all day and had read, taken a nap, watched TV, and basically done nothing. Those of you who know it even just a little bit probably know how well I handled being couped up in one place for even a day....not so well! So I just got in the car and headed toward town. I didn't really have a specific goal in mind and after a little brainstorming I decided that I would head downtown and see what I could get into there. Of course, I forgot that on a Saturday night around 8:00pm it is going to be a little crazy downtown but so be it. I managed to find a place to park and started walking. The cool thing about downtown Greenville is that there is a nice park right in the middle of all of the restaurants and shops. I ended up in that park without really knowing how I got there. As I walked down the path I saw that there was a wedding reception going on. I kept walking thinking that I would just grab a cup of coffee and sit somewhere but I was drawn back to the recpetion. So I sat and I sipped coffee while observing this fairly extragagant looking reception. I couldn't spot the bride and groom so I am guessing they were off having pictures taken. The party was in full swing and looked like a lot of fun. I love the atmosphere of weddings and all the happenings. I started wondering about the bride and groom and what they are like. I wanted to sit and imagine for a long time but it was hot and getting dark so I took my coffee and left. It was a nice night of getting out and enjoying the fresh air, as well as getting to see such a joyful occasion.
Aside from this eveing outting life here is pretty normal. We have some adventures. Took the kiddo to the Zoo and she loved seeing all the animals. Mac is now sleeping in her "big girl bed" and does pretty well with that. She is also an expert climber. Today I found her sitting in her top drawer of her chest of drawers and playing with all kinds of toys. She had pulled each drawer out and used it to get to the next (there are only 3 so she wasn't too high off of the ground but still....she is tricky!) When I opened the door she looked at me and smiled then told me "I got my dolls!" Oh life with a 2 year old, always something new to look out for!
Well as I said, I had no real plan for this post and hopefully it hasn't been too boring. I am truly out of ideas of waht to write so I think now it is time to stop.
