    Thank goodness they could offer you a transfer. Glad your honey is well, and I hope they're able to figure out what's going on with your mom. How awful. I've only suffered short bouts of dizziness. I can't imagine having it chronically. Hugs to all of you.

    Thanks so much, emily!

    I'm going stir crazy here because while I got the verbal offer over the phone, I haven't gotten the formal offer in writing yet. My references need to clear first. So I won't put in my notice until I've gotten my formal offer, and the delay is driving me nuts. HR red tape at its finest!

    okay self,

    get off of the computer and go ride before it gets hot. The one day you have to actually ride for more than an hour and here you sit. As your trainer would say "own it"

    Dear DH,

    Thank you SO much for deciding (at the last minute) that you really do want to to go to your high school reunion as that means an unexpected trip to back to the US (for over 2 weeks!) for us! My mom is going to be surprised and thrilled, and I can't wait to eat all the foods I've been missing, drink WINE (which is way too expensive to buy here), see some beloved friends, and just be "home" for awhile.

    Have I told you lately that I love you?

    Dear heat and humidity:
    Go do anatomically impossible things. Thanks to you and your friend Mold, I just had to throw out a whole loaf of bread.

    Grr.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear Tropical Storm Ernesto,

    Please stay away from Belize, or, if you can't do that, just weaken instead of strengthen.

    Thanks!

    Ditto. Much as I hate to do it, I've been storing bread in the fridge, after having to throw out more than half a loaf a few weeks ago. And when I went to have the last piece of peach pie last night, it was fuzzy.
