It's been a week and these northern folk have not scared us off yet! I still sort of can't believe this is our home now. And that it is the end of August and this chilly. I have been walking Patton in long sleeves. I'm sure this time next year, I will have adjusted and be wearing a tank top in 65 degree weather like the rest of these Pennsylvanians.

We had a fun weekend with some house work, went to see our friends in Latrobe and then had lunch with MG & Corey and their baby that I make subtle hints about adopting. I can only hope that I have such a cute and well behaved bebe one day! It's so wonderful to have friends here already!

I am not so good at making new ones, as Billy always reminds me. Last week though, I did start to talk to a girl in the dog park, which is VERY rare! And tonight, I talked to our neighbor behind us and Billy made me give him a play by play of the conversation so he could approve. It's like he thinks I'm some shut in who can't interact! Meanwhile, he's hiding in the house because he'd covered in poison ivy! Literally, covered! It looks so awful, I can barely look at it!

Four more work days, then two 3 day weekends in a row! My only hope is that I can catch a glimpse of Bret Michaels at Rib Fest this weekend. A girl can dream! ;)
