5 things I am getting used to after moving back east

5. Wildlife!  I guess more water = more everything.  I have never seen birds in such diversity, or other varmints of various sorts, or even so many dogs in one place.  Really.  Everyone seems to have a dog (or two). 
4.  Cooking in a miniature kitchen.  Take the smallest apartment kitchen you ever had and chop it in half and you have my new kitchen.  It makes me more appreciative of what I had back at our house.
3.  Rain falling from the sky in awesomely ridiculous quantities.  I didn't quite ever actually understand that I lived in a desert climate...until we moved out here and "normal" rainstorms ended up being a spectator sport for us.
2.  Heat + humidity.  Still haven't decided if this is better or worse than dry heat.  It depends on the day.
1.  Supersized bugs.  Thankfully outside, not in.  But still creepy.

  1. I'm sorry about your kitchen. I would die in a small kitchen, I think! I have an entire cupboard just for my cupcake supplies! :)

    Hope you're doing well with everything!
