8:30am Meet 5 new moms for a coffee. So, weird to get to know new people! So, funny to listen to them as your mind goes; "is your husband really that amazing?”; "How lovely that you always spend Christmas in Italy!" Mean while there is loud mouth me :)

1:30 Blogging...

I feel like such a busy bee again! I am kinda glad, finally out there in the world meeting people but also like I must maintain balance before it goes crazy. I have got a couple good things going for me tonight we invited a family to dinner, a trip to the army base on Friday, coffee on Monday, shopping on Tuesday, a new book group Wednesday, and plans to see a movie Sunday. I am excited to meet friends and establish a life here in Stuttgart!

This is me; this is my crazy German life!
