Been in NC just over three years now.. It`s quite different to jolly old Watford I can tell you
We`ve been to a few states already..trying to find a good online place to get some foodstuffs and bacon

I have found a job now as well :-) just have to go through the background check 😍 yeah I am not home sick at all, I lived in NY for 6 years and after a few years was super homesick but went back and after 10 years im good! I think k having facetime etc makes it much easier, im sure I will miss a few things eventually but im happy here.

You may be able to hear Foreigner in the distance if you sit outside in your yard this evening.

So glad you're settling in and enjoying life, Kelly!

Have you seen a firefly yet? Those, by far, are my absolute (only) favourite bug that I've encountered Stateside. Beautiful little light shows, right on your doorstep!

These June bugs sound horrifying.

So happy to see you're settling in well, Kelly! We fly in 3 days and DH (the Brit) is VERY excited. Bit of a crazy first week sorting car, bank, etc. but he's looking forward to all the little things, like you're posting about.
