wondering
if there will be apples left on trees in November in Massachusetts... i hope we're not too late for this season.......

wanting
to find apple trees in the backyard of our future forever home (because that would be a dream come true - hmm, maybe not... you know i'd probably kill them with kindness within a year)

hoping
my Mum (and her best friend!  and my sister!  and her little boy!) will please come visit us for Thanksgiving... my homesick heart would really truly love that... i'm already feeling lonely for family and we didn't even leave yet.... this is going to be so hard

wishing
we could take a quick trip back to MA.  to make sure it's definitely 'home'... i'm sure it's home but i'd still love a quick trip back, just to make doubly sure ;)

buying
more red shoes.  sigh, it's like a disease without any cure.  oh gawd am i turning into one of those obnoxious old ladies with the red hats who are louder and more annoying than small children in restaurants...?  OK i'm not buying them :|

needing
to get rid of more stuff that i thought i needed but oh no, the little shingled cottage has e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. - even a stand mixer.... even two homework desks.... (i love this semigrating feeling of freedom)

walk. boo.  it is soooooooo ridiculously hot here.  back later xoxo
