Busy!

Please excuse the lull in posting, we've been a bit busy since accepting our invitation to Honduras! Yep, it's official. We stage in Miami on February 22nd and then off to Honduras on the 23rd, woot!

We've read... and re-read the welcome book, sent in new resumes and aspiration statements, applied for our Peace Corps passports, sent in official resignation letters to our bosses, started packing... again, and reserved a Uhaul truck to make the 1,800 mile trip to Texas, eek! (If you are awaiting an invite, please be aware that as soon as it comes, you will be VERY busy!)

Now we just need to decide what is left to do in New York City before we say good-bye.... bitter sweet, but it's a very good time to leave. We get to have all of the holiday festivities minus the worst of the weather come February.... we'll be in Texas by then, drinking margaritas and wearing t-shirts and shorts :) Most of the time left will be spent with friends, eating out at our favorite spots one last time... and walking through all of the museums (tear!) I will miss it, but then I can remind myself of how horrible the subways smell, how rude people can be when they steal your cab, and how you can't get anywhere in Midtown between Thanksgiving and New Years because the streets are soooo clogged with tourists! Plus, a whole new world is about to open up to us... bring it on!

Anyway, we may not post again for a few weeks with so much left to do, but until then... Happy Holidays!
