Official-ness

My stuff showed up yesterday, kind of weird to see that all of your belongings fit on two pallets.  Now I have to figure out where to put everything...hmmmm where is a professional organizer when you need one?

Henry's mom and grandma (Eva and Pat) invited me over for a crafters meeting.  I wish I could have stayed longer but had work to do :(  Speaking of which, working from home has been pretty nice.  Its quiet so I feel as if I get a TON of things done in a shorter amount of time.

Yesterday evening Henry needed another hand feeding cattle, so I was nominated as "driver" while he and Gilmer threw hay off the trailer.

I felt pretty cool...you know, driving a truck going less than 5 miles per hour in a straight line is really important stuff, I don't know how they would have managed without me!

I headed into Columbus this morning since my car registration finally showed up!  Side note, the dealership I bought the car from sent the title to Ca DMV, not Montana even after the out of state transfer AND my new address...ugh.  Anyway, I got my plates right away, I wasnt expecting that, AND I got to choose which plate I wanted!  There was a wall of different designs, colors, animals, etc.  It was a difficult decision one that I will later regret I am sure.  Its all official now, I have a Montana drivers license AND license plates!

My car color is silver, can you tell I live on a dirt road?

While in Columbus I ran by the grocery store and needed to mail some work things, as I am checking out of the grocery store I ask the clerk "do you have a mail drop box" and she says "no but the post office is right there" as she points to the post office that is about 25 feet from the store, and about 2 feet from where I parked my car...Idiot moment of the day.  She laughed, I laughed, the bag boy laughed.  It was a special moment.

Have I mentioned everyone is SO NICE here?  Random people just say "hello" and "good morning" everywhere, its so nice.  I get a little too excited and shout back "HELLO GOOD MORNING!!" I need to work on my responses. 


Took a few cool pics on my drive: #nofilter
