Hello from the UK - It's Official Again

Hello lovely people out there in the internet--I'm back today. I took an unannounced departure to go get hitched (the lead-up here, the recaps here) and am finding my way back to a routine...It's lovely. There are plants to water, a quilt to sew, summer veggies to cook, and poems to be written. It's sweetness.

That sweetness has been building up while I've been away--the fingers tap to write again--and yet there was paper work to be done, a job to get back to. Still, last Thursday I gained permission to stick around the UK for another two years--and well that was something to celebrate. Today, my ID card came in the post and I was about to delete the celebratory texts from friends upon hearing the news of my new official status, and well, there words are what I'll begin my one a day, again, today:

Yeah!! congrats
