So you may have noticed I hinted at some big transition changes coming up in reviewing our touring time with my grandparents this month (for more on this see my posts: playing tourist with the grandparents). Well here are am to explain : we are relocating! As some of you may know since moving to…
A transition of Grace
As I mentioned in my Transition Update life has gone from 0-60mph very quickly. Since I started teaching on March 11 today is the first day I feel life is leveling out and beginning to settle. Monday night the 10th I attended our second week of Choir practice for the Easter production. Then Luke the next…
A transition update
Yes I know it has been more than three weeks since I last posted. No I have not abandoned my blog or my audience. Yes I missed you too. Now that that's out of the way here's why I haven't been writing: I have been very busy. I know it's THAT excuse again. But I…
6 months =100 posts
Hard to believe I started blogging A.Greene’s Adventures 6 months ago. 100 posts later, I have shared with you the ways I have transformed, transitioned, and transcended, into married life in Corning NY. Looking back, since January we: Survived our first NY winter (See: A lesson in Independence, 2300 degrees, my new hometown) Settled into our home, state,…
Pre-wedding Jitters
I've got pre-wedding jitters, only it's not my wedding and they are jitters of excitement and anticipation. Today I am flying out to Washington. I'm coming into town a week before my little brother's wedding so I can help with the last minute planning and participate in pre-wedding events. My pre-wedding itinerary includes: a bridal…
Summer projects, the waiting game, and being content
Well summer has officially started as of today. This calls to my mind what this season might bring for me. Since vacation in May (see Vacation Highlights part 1 and Vacation Highlights part 2) I have felt pressure to work hard at my job: the job of finding a job. It is hard living in a place where…
The home-brewing has begun
As I explained last month, one of the first things people think about when they hear I'm allergic to barley is that I cannot drink beer. But my husband Luke has chosen to turn this into a fun challenge. He is finally starting a hobby he has been wanting to do for awhile: home brewing his…
Living with one car; the tire story revisited
As promised, I will share the saga of our recent car drama. If you have been reading my blog for awhile then you know that Luke and I are currently sharing my little red Honda CRV. A few months ago, on a very chilly day in January the front tire went flat. To read the…
Happy Easter!
Not only is this our first married Easter but also the first year together that we are not putting on some big BBQ, brunch, or Easter Egg hunt. Instead it will be just the two of us enjoying the 50 degree weather and a peaceful brunch at home of hot cross buns and berry salad!…
Living without a dishwasher
We had all of three days to find our new home this past November (no pressure). At the end of the weekend, sitting in Cracker Barrel we talked through our options and chose on our little 750 sq. ft. yellow rented home in Corning. Jump forward to the week of Thanksgiving. As we started reacquainting…
