     Our life is going through many changes again, all of them good this time! As we started the process to transition Aaron home I kept thinking about all of the things that were going to change in just a matter of a few months and now it's finally here and I am happy to report that we survived the first week! 

Here are some of the new changes happening in our house...

1. No more driving back and fourth too many times to count,  I have been home before dark and so far before 5pm each night! 

2. All laundry is home, I don't have to pick it up and take it back and fourth and no more overflowing hampers!

3. I have cooked dinner more this week than I have in as long as I can remember, crazy I know, no more drive through! (Well at least not as often!)

4. With dinners come groceries, I actually have some substantial groceries in the house! I have to shop a lot differently than I have been since I don't think Aaron can live on cereal and milk!

5. I can actually turn my cell phone to off, well after I get home from work at least! I don't think my cell phone has been turned off in 5 1/2 years unless I was in an airplane! 

6. I no longer have to talk to the dog at night like he is a human and understands everything I tell him, sometimes I don't know what I did before the dog lol! 

7. There aren't any more late night calls or wake up calls from Aaron because he is bored, he is sleeping when I am! PS This should also be a perk for some other family members since I know they have been blessed with some of these calls too! 

8. I have time for naps in the afternoon, I actually got one in already this week! 

9. Our home health caregiver makes my bed, the last time I remember that my bed was made was when I lived at home with my grandmother! 

10. Last but not least, I am learning to share a bed with Aaron and Jasper. This is probably my least favorite since I have been sandwiched between the two of them all week long!
