the view from here...

as we adjust and adapt to our new living space
some of us rather quicker than others
(ok, I'm the only one having problems with this new set up)
I guess dinner is dinner whether the table is in the house or the garage...to kids it's just an adventure
as they lounged in the "new living room" one said "the only thing missing is the tv.
to which I replied "what would you watch? there is not cable in the garage (thank goodness)"
my father who was here, and lounging with the rest said "well what is wrong with movies?"
sigh,
which set into motion the moving of the tv to the garage and the search for extension cords to hook up the dvd player and the tv
since mom said that no, no you could not unplug the refrigerator in order to wach tv.
seriously they did ask this.
and as I headed out the door (garage door, mind you. you know the one you drive your car thru)
for my meeting last night there they all sat with big grins watching a movie.
in the garage.
this morning when I opened the door to put up the garage door, preparing for the first daycare kids to arrive
I only paused a moment when I glanced at the one who was up, sitting at the table eating breakfast before she headed off to work
"morning mom" was her cheerful reply
guess, perhaps I too am adjusting to this new living arrangement
(kicking and screaming the whole way , mind you)
it's certainly an adventure.
