Strange differences.

Everything is going quite well with us. We greatly enjoy living in our own place. It's the simple things really. For instance, being thirsty at 11 PM and walking to the kitchen in your underwear and a tank top. Phillip lives in boxers past a certain time and until he puts on his work clothes. Mariana seems to be adjusting well. Her room is adorable. She is easier to keep an eye on here. I can see into her room from the living room and I can keep an eye on her from where I sit, here at my computer, which is a nice change.

However, I do miss certain things quite a bit. For instance, in the mornings, I would sit on the countertop while Mom prepared her breakfast or coffee or whatever, and I'd drink a cup of coffee and chat with her. Sometimes I'd complain about whatever Phil did to annoy me, or whether or not Mariana slept well, how Maddy kept me up, and sometimes I'd listen to her, or we'd do both. Today, I really miss that. I've gotten quite close to her and Dad. The other thing I miss is the afternoons. Dad would come home and we'd sit on the couch and have coffee or a snack and the 3 of us would just sit there chatting or watching TV together.

I do love it here though. I just miss the time we all had together so regularly.
