The new Illyria

[breakinglight11]

Bliss is being alone in your clean house on a lazy Saturday. <3

Pink just moved the last of her things out this morning. Charlotte originally was going to replace her in the house, but unexpectedly Rachel decided she wanted to move out too. She left for vacation the other day, and most of her things are gone. Now we will have a Brandeis graduate student named Laura in Pink's old room, and Charlotte will be the new occupant in Rachel's. I enjoyed living with her at Elsinore the year before last, so I'm excited to have her again, and though I've never met Laura, Pink has assured me she is a lovely person.

I spent the morning cleaning so the house will be nice for Laura when she arrives. I scrubbed the surfaces, the shelves, the cabinets, mopped the floor, cleaned the bathroom, washed the dishes. Now I am relaxing with a little TV and enjoying the solitude. Unfortunately Illyria currently has no Internet, as the router left with Emily, but Charlotte has some idea of how to deal with that, so I will wait until she returns from Maine. I have my iPad with 3G until then, and of course my phone.

Laura will be here in the next few hours, and I will help her if she needs it. Until then, my house is clean, and I am enjoying a well-deserved bit of relaxation.
