*spend quality time with near-by friends
*enjoy my beautiful mountain sunsets and views
*feel "settled" in my home of four years
*walk to the grocery store out my back door for "something fun" to do
*enable Granny Bubbles to enjoy play, play, playing with the boys
*get winter tires for Dan's truck (although sooner would be better)
*deliberately and methodically shop for Christmas
*pack the rest of our things in a non-harried fashion
*go to our favourite parks
*not have to worry about cooking full meals every night
*print out lists of things to do for our move without everything
being pre-marked "overdue" and feeling like I'm starting in a hole
*call my local friends as a local call
*watch whatever movies or programs I feel like
*facilitate playdates for Natty and his best buds
*enjoy receiving and reading every last bit of our small weekly newspaper
*drive by John and Paige's deserted house and remember the good times
*look out my back window at the giant Canadian flag to see the wind
patterns at any point in the day (I secretly want to be a meteorologist)
*also look out my back window to be able to check the gas price
*plan, measure, dream and order things for the new house
*be a week-day single mom
*have my evenings all to myself to do whatever I feel like
*eat all the unhealthy things I feel like without feeling guilty
*contemplate being a fully-functioning family again
