I went to St. Louis for a site visit about two weeks ago. I interviewed at two schools and Simon and I looked for an apartment. Overall the trip excited me even more about moving there. St. Louis has these incredible neighborhoods that have their own vibe and flavor. We fell in love with an apartment in Lafayette Square. It is by a huge park and has its own restaurant/eclectic shops section. It's beautiful, hopefully when I go back in June I can take some better pictures so everyone can see it.
Amidst trying to do my pre-institute work, I have also started to do a family genealogy. Ok so I know I am a big dork, but there is something that excites me about learning about my family's past. I love putting all the puzzle pieces together and making sure they fit correctly. Maybe it's the research journalist in me, maybe it's the fact that I am the ultimate procrastinator, not sure but I love it. If you want to know more ask me, and I will tell you about my great great grandmother, Belle.
I am also trying to finish a knitting project for a baby that is on the way in July..love ya Anna. I need to put more time into that or it might potentially be done a few months after the new addition is born.
