As I sit here typing (minus one shift key thanks to a mild temper tantrum the Captain had yesterday), I can't believe I've lived in Spain almost a year to the date and that, sadly, I'll be back stateside in a little more than a month. The Captain was just a wee-Private when we left home and had literally just started to crawl.
Why is that, by the way? Is that the Murphy's Law of toddlers...if you are packing up your entire house and not baby proofed then your toddler is certain to start crawling? It was fabulous.
Anyway, though our departure will be soon, I am certain that our next adventure will give me mucho to blog about (assuming we can get Internet connections where we're heading). This is how the plan is shaking down if we can swing it...
- Dad works for the next couple of weeks;
- We attempt a meet up with friends in the south of France for about 5 days;
- Back to Valencia to pack up, rest up, work and chill;
- Two weeks traveling around southern Spain by car;
- Fly home or possibly to my parents house a few hours from home to steal their automobile in the night, seeing as how we sold all our worldly possessions when we moved;
- Move back into house (which is rented out until June 30th);
- Dad goes back to his home office; and finally
- The Mediocre Mama finds a job.
Eek.

Wow - good luck with that! I'm exhausted just READING about your month ahead!
Will you be in NY long? June 30th is the day we leave for Mexico for a week...a long overdue sunny vacation that we ALL need =) Aaahh....
Not sure yet. Might be coming in June 28th or 29th. Will depend on how our travel pans out. Not to worry, we'll be in late July.
Sorry to hear about being eliminated earlier than expected. If you can answer without giving away Deviant Dad's secret identity, what kind of work is left to do for several more weeks?
Wrapping up, mopping, turning out the lights. You know. the basics.
