who wonders why i haven't posted in forever. :) hi.
Mom just left yesterday and I'm in the middle of transitioning back into "away" mode. Moms bring home with them. and so do Luginbills (the friends that were in town over Thanksgiving weekend). so now that they're gone I'm re-shifting to being in London with just me and Sarah. London hasn't been just me and Sarah for quite some time now and honestly, it's nice to simplify things again.
Christmas!! I'm such a Christmas girl. and London is such a Christmas town. which makes being in the holiday mood quite easy. There are lights everywhere and Christmas music in all of the shops. and Bing Crosby is currently telling me that "no matter where you're going, or where you've been, you're part of the family of man." I love that voice. :)
Work is going really well. Since Hayley left I've kind of been thrown into the lead waitress role. We've hired several new wait-staff, so I'm meeting more people and having to help orient them, which I really like doing. Oh Hardy's. I like it and I'll be glad to leave it. :) It's a daily paradox. I should not make waitressing my living. :) But you know? It's fine for now. And I am in a good place there.
So yeah. Having Mom here was so great. I got to be spoiled a little bit and show her my life and my city and my markets and I really liked that. Dad actually flew into town for just a few days and completely took me and Mom by surprise. You can imagine how pleased he was at success of his elaborate plan. Yay family! Anyway, Kyle, you should probably comment on my blog if you're going to complain about me not writing enough. And then I might write more often! Also, I love you a lot and I hope that school is going well. I'm sure I'll talk to you before too long.
And to everyone else - I miss you! But I'm wholeheartedly here. and I will continue to be here, living and breathing and tea-drinking, until it is time to pack up the tea and come home to live wholeheartedly there again. :)

I am glad you finally wrote. I have been waiting to see how you are doing. By the way, I now have Skype. We should chat.
Dad and I are sitting in the kitchen on a frosty Saturday morning drinking Queen's blend tea out of a cute little tea pot from the Tea Pod and thinking of you.
We love you.
...oh and it's Grandpa's birthday :-)
