New rental, new job, new town. We relocated three weeks ago and just about everything has had issues, it's exhausting. Very few things went smoothly but I am thankful that nothing has been catastrophic.

Getting Back Into It
The last two and a half months have been interesting. With returning to America we knew there would be a lot we would be upgrading, replacing and adding to our lives.
