Home Again, Home Again

Originall published May 7, 2010 on our other blog.

So we are back in the US and it is good to be home. The flight back was loooonnnnnnggggg. So when you come visit us, be prepared for quite a trip. My tail bone had never been so sore in my life. I was really wishing for a business class seat!

The top 10 great things about being back in the US, in no particular order:

  1. You can drink the water out of the tap

  2. You actually understand the rules of the road while driving

  3. It isn't 113 degrees (although since I've been back, I just can't get warm!)

  4. Everything is green in Seattle

  5. You recognize the food you eat

  6. You get to sleep in your own bed (when you can get over the jet lag that is - I've been up at about 3 a.m. most days this week)

  7. You understand the programs on TV

  8. Your cell phone works so it is easy to get in touch with folks

  9. We are back with Rebecca

  10. You can get a hamburger if you want


We haven't actually settled on a house yet, however. Out of all the places we looked at, we liked the home that Marty and Donna were living in the best. It looks like the landlord simply wants too much in rent, however, so I am not optimistic that Marty and Donna's place will work out. So we are considering our other options. The current second choice is more in the flight path of the airport so there is a lot of airplane noise. I'm not excited about that, but it has a lot of things that we need, and that we didn't find in other places. So we'll see how things work out.
