Day: 7

Day 7- One week down!

First of all I want to say THANK YOU for reading my blog! I am excited and amazed at how many people come here and comment. So, today... I am thankful for my friends. I spent the whole day with some of my favorite people here!

I met up with a friend, Rachel, for lunch today. Although we are still new friends, I am amazed at how strong, supportive, understanding, and just fun she is! We had a nice big salad and did a little shopping and got some starbucks. She is great! Here's a picture. :)



Then, I went to my knitting group! Since I moved here a year and a half ago, these people have been so welcoming, friendly, and amazing! Every week we sit around, knit, vent, and laugh. They are some of the most interesting people with all these crazy mad skills. They are all so different, but all fit together in this group. I dont have time or energy to talk about everyone in the group..... but I want to point out (starting from left to right) Marissa, who speaks Japanese, has an adorable daughter, and knits the most awesome socks! She is so happy and friendly! Liz, is super crafty and knowledgeable about all kinds of stuff. Whether it be a question about knitting, spinning, dying, cooking, gardening, canning, she will know the answer. Tonight she explained how to poach an egg to me. She also owns chickens, and shares the eggs! Caitlyn is a very new friend, but shes so friendly and sweet! Tabitha (with the baby), is AMAZING to me. I cant believe how supportive, thoughtful, understanding, and strong she is. I know she always has my back ;) Also, not pictured- Stephanie, who is so friendly, smart, organized, reliable, and loyal. I just love her! I also want to throw a shout out to Sarah, who is so sweet and friendly. I really enjoy seeing her smiling face!! So many others at knitting, but Im TIRED! haha




Also, my best friend Sarah, who lives in Boston. I miss her and love all our fun times! I cant wait to see her in May! I know she loves me and is the most loyal friend. I know she "gets me". I really love her!


Im just taking time to appreciate some of my new friends today. I know sometimes I take my friends for granted, but I am so so thankful for all the love and support the give, and continue to give to me. Thank you.
