After putting out some feelers I was connected with a few people in town who have been kind enough to entertain me. Earlier this week I went on a dog walk with a glass artist who worked with me at ajp. She happens to live around the corner from the hospital. Yesterday, Adam's college friends Ben and Colin came to visit from LA. It is always nice to have visitors. They made us both laugh. Tonight, I had dinner with the Levine kids and their cousins, aunt and uncle. I only knew two of them from our Denver childhood. Between everyone there we all live in four different states yet it was strangely familiar. It was good homemade food, lots of laughs, and four children under the age of four. Kids are endless bundles of energy. I'm looking forward to another visit from my mom at the end of the week for a little more TLC.
With these new friends I'm starting to feel connected to this town and can see us staying around a few more weeks of recovery. Adam may not be up to socializing but so far it has really been nice for me to have other people to talk to. Sequoia is good company but not a great conversationalist. Thanks everyone! I just hope I will feel as comfortable back in MD when we settle there as I do here. I'll soon find out!
