Our summer plans are finally taking shape. We finalized everything today. It's a good thing as we leave town on June 7th for two months. Never has it taken this long for things to manifest. Usually we have a plan by March. I wanted to have a month in California, a month in New York and to see Gary's family. That is exactly what is going to happen. This is truly an answer to my prayers. We found a great place to stay in California in a cute town called Orinda, and a great place to stay in New York in a town called Honeoye Falls. (both from Craigslist) Oh boy! More places to explore and blog about!
I have a lot to do before we leave. I have to pack, shop for clothes for the kids and me, repair our video camera, finish my volunteer hours at the kid's schools, and I am supposed to be finishing a book I have been working on for two years, and turn it in to the powers that be this summer. I was wanting to have it finished before I leave. Not sure that is possible, especially since my kids have been sick for a total of almost 2 weeks, and I am behind, but I'll do my best. Luckily they are all back at school. I will likely be tapping away at my computer on our summer trip. I am so excited!!!
