Day 22

Day 22: Favorite City


Every city gives me a different feeling, and it's hard to choose one feeling that I like the best. I've narrowed it down to 2: Athens & Nashville.

Athens gives me a homey feeling. I was born there, and even though I wasn't really raised there, I have fond memories from when I was little. My elementary school, the neighborhood pool, our old house. You know that smell that your old threadbare t-shirts get after they've been boxed up for a while? That's how Athens makes me feel.

Nashville gives me a breezy feeling. Every time I go there I feel good. I could walk around Hillsborough Village & downtown all day. I have a few great friends who live there now- and I love having an excuse to be in this town.



Tomorrow we head to somebody's favorite city. (Whose? Who knows. But someone's gotta love it!) The Little A. Aw-benny. We will be celebrating Thanksgiving with my family this year & Christmas with K's. The whole switching holidays thing is really hard for me. I am really close with my family, and hold tight onto tradition. Not seeing my family on Christmas might be a little much. I remember the first Thanksgiving that I missed -2 years ago- and I cried.

We are set to close on our house Tuesday morning. The same day we have to be out of our apartment. Very interesting. We are all boxed up and have been living on paper plates & cups for the past couple of days. We are so excited to get into our first home!!! It's been a stressful month, but it'll be worth it when K carries me over the threshold. And he better.


Until Next Time,
