Again, Dorothy was SO right...

there is no place like HOME. I hope to never lose this sense of thankfulness that I have right now. I do not know that I have been this happy in a really long time. Things are just falling right into place.

My first week at my new firm was a success. You will all be thrilled to know that my track record for messed up flights lives. My flight on Tuesday was 2.5 hours late and I did not get home until after 1 a.m. UGH! I reported to the Indianapolis office on Wednesday morning bright and early at 8. I was SO tired. I really enjoyed meeting all of my new colleagues. The atmosphere is so much different here in Indianapolis than it is in Boston. (I feel eternally grateful for my time away from home-Indiana-because without time away I would never appreciate things here as much as I now do.) The people are extremely friendly, but more family-oriented than work focused. I am OK with that. I was taken to lunch each day this week. It was so nice!

Wednesday night I came home and hung out with MacKenzie. It was nice to finally be in one place. I also got my new iPhone 4 in the mail so that was an exciting event. I'm SO happy to be back in the iPhone club. I don't think it is as good for a work phone as the Blackberry, but Deloitte offered it so who am I to turn it down?! ;):)

Thursday night I got to meet Shaya for dinner. We ran some errands and just hung out. It was so fun to be able to do something like that on a "school night." (I will always consider Sunday-Thursday evenings school nights even though I'm not in school. HA!) Last night I met up with Shannon for dinner and then we went looking at houses. Again, it was so nice to be able to hang out with a friend on a random evening. LOVE IT!

This morning Susie and I went to the gym. I just joined and had a free personal training appointment. I had to wait on the trainer and got annoyed. I guess I still have a little of the Bostonian in me. I ended up getting 28 free personal training sessions from the fiasco. Yep. I was pretty pumped considering the sessions range from $30- $50 each. SCORE! I'll be a size 6 in no time. :) I am really going to be hitting it hard the next couple of months since I'm not in school and work should not be as crazy as it was in Boston.

Tonight MacKenzie and I are headed to Upland. We're pretty excited to see everyone up there.

Jackson is still in Boston. I miss him. He misses MacKenzie. Isn't that how it goes?! He has started really packing up the apartment. Today he rode the T (public transit system of Boston) to Cambridge to try out a restaurant he saw on Food Network. He liked it. He's pretty ready to be back in the homeland and reconnected with us. Only 2 more weeks! Woo hoo! :)

I really do have the most positive attitude I think I have ever had. The people at my office think I am on something because I'm just so happy. It is wild. I am just thankful and really blessed. I look forward to seeing most of my readers (let's be honest, my readers are mostly hoosiers) here in the near future!
