• Nearly there…

  I got back from my work trip to England late Thursday evening.  Jamie met me at the airport with a bouquet of flowers (gerbera daisies in all different colors) and then we had dinner and took the train home.  Unfortunately, I still had to work that night, so I didn’t get to bed until around 1am.  Then, the next morning was a 5 hour teleconference planning session…oy.  Long teleconferences like that drain me. 

  Today we drove around the Netherlands to the town where some of Jamie’s ancestors are from.  Really small town, but super adorable…it was nice to see!  We’d never been before, but we were able to take a boat ride around the fortress (the town is an old fortress town), which was really neat.  Tomorrow we’re going to Germany to show his parents around, which will be nice.  I love Germany..especially the architecture of the cathedrals.  The food’s not too bad either, but I have to be careful because it’s so heavy it makes my stomach hurt.

  Otherwise, all is well!  Still keeping an eye out on the real estate back home, so if we find a place we love, we can buy.  Nothing has really stuck out yet, but we have time.  Still applying for jobs back home as well (for me…Jamie’s is pretty much guaranteed), but nothing confirmed.  I figure, if I don’t find a job, we’ll just start trying for a baby right away and go from there.  I’m incredibly lucky in that I don’t have to work (financially speaking), and now that I’ve paid nearly all my law school debt (I’ve paid off $110K of $121k), we don’t really have to worry about debt and two incomes.  I’m very fortunate, I know this.

  Nothing much else going on, honestly.  I’ve been so tired from my work trip in England that I’ve just been relaxing as best I can.  Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

  XOXOXO,
  K.
