Packing But Not In a Good Way

We're moving. Our rental agency was informed by the house owner this morning that he had sold the house and needed it empty...tomorrow. Holy crap! The good news is they're upgrading us to a bigger, nicer house...the other bad news is that it's a lot farther down the beach. Sigh.

John reported that we're "on" for another 30 days but that the Embassy is going to review the situation on October 20th. So I've heard the good news/bad news thing all day.

Kimmy and I went and had pedicures today. We needed the TLC after the news of the impending move. We had lunch out then came home to work on the move situation. She went with me to pick up Jake who we kept blissfully unaware of the news.

We told the kids all together - their reaction was more of annoyance than anything else...but Jake was more upset than the girls. Poor little dude! So many upheavals, so little time!

If Jake can keep his equilibrium through all the damn upheavals he's been through, he's a good man.

History tells me that you and the girls will do just fine and it helps to have Kim there with you.

Will the bigger, nicer house have a granny suite???

luvluvluv
