Finally – an actual current post! We are somehow already in
mid-March and just waiting for the weather to, any day now, give in to
spring. We have endured our first winter
in the city – colder than expected, but less snow than expected was the general
consensus. We’ve had a successful but
very busy Q1 so far. Patrick upped his
courseload and has been studying fervently.
I’ve taken on a lot more weekend shifts than usual and work is always
very stressful this time of year. As a
result, it feels like the two of us have barely crossed paths in the last few
months.
But what a difference a little time away can make! We took a
stretch of days off and took the train to Connecticut to a beautiful beach
cottage. We have finally had some time
to catch up on sleep, reading, random projects – and without any jackhammers or
sirens at all! It’s this cottage you can thank for any of these posts actually
going up. We came up on Sunday morning
and we’ll head back home tomorrow, but for now we’re spending lazy days
lounging around and looking out over the water and walking on the (still very
cold) beaches.
It has been a unique beach stay in that we got a snow storm
last night and got to see snowy white beaches.
We also had some high tides and waves in the middle of the night were
under the house and absolutely freaked me out, but nobody got swept out to sea
after all.
This place is pretty much our dream house – we could even do
with just the first floor, thank you.
Take a look and enjoy! We will definitely be back in the summer.
