Every day I have started a new post, but every day I have deleted it after just a few lines. Seems that of all of us in the Eriksen clan, I am having the most trouble adjusting to our new life. It's been rather difficult to adjust to leaving my friends and the familiar parts of my life in Whittier. Although I love my new house and feel comfortable in it, I still feel awkward anywhere else. G has become the worst child to take in public, bar none, which means I spend my time housebound or in public and feeling miserable because he screams at the top of his lungs when things don't go his way. Which often happens. :) Add in all the extra time I am spending in the car dropping off and picking up kids, and my quality of life has taken a bit of a nosedive.
So in this epic battle of me vs. ABQ, I am not coming out the winner. Yet. I will though, since I am way too stubborn to accept anything less than victory!
In other news, tomorrow marks the first day of the Balloon Fiesta. I am looking forward to seeing hundreds of hot air balloons gracing the very big, very beautiful sky.

I hope you have fun at the Hot Air Balloon Event! I'm sorry you feel like you don't have a place yet in your new environment. Patience, right?
Awww Nicole, sounds like the honeymoon has worn off. I'll keep ya in my prayers, that the tough times are short!
I hope things improve. We are seriously considering Arizona.....
In the meantime...Disneyland is calling!!! *hint hint* Not sure if you've posted this already but I'd love a picture tour of your new town. I am friends with someone in Seattle and I asked her about their commuter trains. She thought I was crazy. I guess things are a bit different up there then they are here! Anyway....consider!
