Well, no one else got me to move out of Matilda - it was my decision to stop
traveling for a while, and I think it's the right decision. At least for a
while.
But it's still a real culture shock. Of course it's only been three days!
And now that I've set up a desk in my house, it's kind of nice and I'm
getting work done. And I really do like having a shower and not having to
worry about gray water. So I will adjust.
But I'm trying to think of this house as a perch, not a nest.
Joy
