Not a lot to report today, but things are moving along well.  I’ve struck a deal with my son to buy our car … nice for both of us because of the situation we’re both in, so we can drive until moving day and then hand him the keys in return for cash.

Went to our bank and they were pretty good … didn’t get bent out of shape at all when I told them we were going to move overseas “for a while”.  ordered new checks with the new address, counted up and cashed out a whole bag full of US change Mita had been saving (not any use for US change overseas) and went to Wal*Mart and bought some “stock up” items we know are going to be hard to get.

Tomorrow I better get some of these shiny new packing boxes filled.  Must have been all the traveling I’ve done in the military, there’s a good feel about the smell of those new boxes and every time you “square one up” and put the tape across the bottom you think of the new adventure in store.  I’m excited.
