Here we are. A couple of new St. Louisans.
I think it's fair to say we both feel a bit lost right now, especially surrounded by boxes. The tricky part of these boxes is we are currently in temporary housing so we're not sure how much to unpack and how much to set aside for when we move again...
I arrived yesterday and Mike helped me carry in the big furniture once he got home from class. As I looked at the puddle of sweat I was dropping, I walked up to the shower to see all the bruises appearing on my legs. Honestly, my dad moved all the boxes in the truck into the townhouse during the day all on his own. Let's all pause to give a round of applause for my dad! Aside from the fact that it was above and beyond what we could have asked, I was beat after packing my car (to capacity), cleaning our place in Chicago and driving to St. Louis. (Also, it's a good thing he was there because apparently the copy of Mike's key that we made in Chicago did not work...)
After emptying the truck (and my shower), Mike & I sat down and had a beer.
This morning we did some yoga on the deck, which was quite lovely. Mike was delighted to see little ducks in the pond off to the side and kept smiling as they would quack during the yoga.
Yes, he's on a rug. Yes, I did check in and see if he was getting rug burn. He said no. He doesn't have a yoga mat and we wanted to be on the deck. It was such a nice morning.
So now. I'm planning to start a park workout with one of my friends (just the two of us) maybe we can take turns planning the workout for the day... And I keep hearing about Bumble BFF. I might give that a try too. Why not?
