its been almost a month since i've moved here to iowa. i can honestly say i'm thankful to be here and i'm really enjoying my time here thus far.
here a few of my favorite things about being here:
1) being close to grandma milly & grandpa marv
2) being in a bachelor's degree nursing program
3) having to get out of my comfort zone and actually be "the new person". not having all of my friends that i love "down the street" has been stretching but its been a good experience for me on a lot of different levels...
4) having my own little place (even though i share it! : )
5) not having to sit in traffic
6) cooking a lot more
7) having a coffee shop other than starbucks that is insanely amazing
mind you i really miss people from back home... not so much california (except the sunshine!). i'm learning a lot in so many areas its a little overwhelming. school, life, who i am, where i want to be...
oh and side note: i have to share my new favorite breakfast:
lavender oatmeal. don't say gross, i think everyone should try oatmeal with lavender flowers, flaxseed, slivered almonds, and agave (or honey) on top. : ) i made it up yesterday and i'm stoked about it. its my attempt at domestic-ness.

i'm so proud of you that starbucks is no longer a part of your daily routine.
