I made it to North Carolina yesterday and so far I'm having a GREAT time! I got here yesterday afternoon; my dad picked me up at the airport (I'm SO glad I flew instead of driving 8 hours alone!). My dad and I went to lunch together and had a really great time.
I didn't get much sleep the night before I left Philly (thanks to my procrastination in packing and the 4 kittens), so I took a nice nap once I got to my parents' house. Then, to my wonderful surprise, my aunt and uncle came to visit and we all went to dinner together. I haven't seen them in a while and they are 2 of my favorite people in the world...they have been incredible supporters and encouragers of me throughout my life, so it was awesome to see them.
Today I honestly didn't do much of anything, which was really nice. When I got up, no one was home, so I spent some good time alone (which I really enjoy nowadays). My mom came home around lunch and she and I went and looked at some houses that my parents are interested in and then ran a few errands. I set up wireless internet at their house (mostly so I can use my own computer rather than theirs, haha) and discovered that life without TiVo is full of a lot of bad TV. Other than that, I just relaxed and loved every second of it. I do plan on getting some work done while I'm here, but I still have 4 more days to do that. :)
Tomorrow my mom and I are going to look at a few more houses, and I want to head to Greenville (about 30 minutes away) to do a little shopping and reading (they have a Starbucks there!). I also WILL go for a run by the water, if its the last thing I do! :)
My phone has also been ringing constantly from kids and teens calling wondering when I will be back. Its nice to be missed...but I'm not answering the calls. :)
