and we're off!

so it is derby weekend... and we have left the state! for some reason, horseracing seems to be lost on us!

so instead, we are in michigan with the kids. haveing a tumble before our flight to slovakia. the bags are packed, the climbing gear is sorted and stowed, the backpacking gear is downsized (amazing how little you need when you aren't sleeping in a tent!), and most importantly, the *CAREPACKAGE* is finished for annie and sean. deet nestled in plastic far far away from the peanut-butter chocolates i spent yesterday dipping.

so my stress level has plummetted in the last 12 hours! AND my sleep schedule is soooo screwy right now i think i am subsisting on caffeine and sugar, but that will only help my jet lag, right?! AND, curt hasn't killed or disowned me for being a tad on the short side lately... a fact he passes off as "well, you haven't even been home, so how could I?" hmmm. there's some truth to that!

so, we will be gone for 2 weeks. we will have shady e-mail access during that time. we will not have phone access. we will not be speaking english even! should be exciting! i can't wait!

i will update if we get the chance, but don't hold your breath!

love!

About speaking no English: I guess we could accomodate you on that, and only speak to you in Slovak. It all depends on how frequently you'd like to be asked for 1/4 kilo of cheese.

Peanut butter chocolates? The mosquitoes will envy the feasting to come! Can't wait to see y'all!

Prosím si štvrť kilo syrova?
