where does the time go?

I can't believe it. I keep realising that I'm way behind on things -- like my blog, my other journal, writing cards etc. and calling people to tell them we're here.

We've been here for almost 2 1/2 weeks now, and I feel like that time has all been in fast forward. We've gotten Andy a social security number (crucial to him getting everything else in the way of ID), a learner's permit... we got insurance for the car, had it titled over to us, got license plates that say "CUP T LUV"!!!!!! <---- How cool is that?!!?! My license plate in the UK was K877ARF. This is muuuuuuuuuch better!

I'll post a picture once the plates come and we get them on the car.

We've also gotten a credit card for me, (going to get one for Andy once he decides which one he wants!) bought a computer with it to establish credit, been back and forth to the library nearly every day (what an awesome system -- Ione, you would LOVE this library system!!! No charges for reservations on their HUGE collection -- Multimedia is free ... you get it for 5 days and if it's overdue, THEN you PAY!!)

I'm digressing... I get like that every time I think about Columbus Metropolitan Library system -- I start drooling and babbling and get all wound up and overstimulated! I've added the link just above so you can go and have a look at what's in their collection if you want!

We purchased some things to start up our/my new ebay business -- going to call it KittyCatCuts -- going to sell alphabet and other die cutouts in card and fancy paper. Eventually going to branch out and sell more scrapbooking things to the UK but for now we're starting with alphabets. It's not supposed to be a major earner -- just to earn me a little bit on the side so I can have some spending money for scrapbooking. Once we're in the new house (once we sell the UK one!!!) then I plan to have what they call here Crop sessions -- have a bunch of ladies over to scrapbook together and chat etc. I want to do them regularly, either weekly or twice a month and either have classes running too, or I don't know yet. Still thinking about it.

Watch this space!!
