and so much time!
I'm enjoying my new-found freedom, having returned to Lagos one week ago and having lived one week without The Job!
My goals for last week were few --- get the office at home looking more like home and less like a temporary office; get my new laptop fully functioning; book a flight to Bangkok to see Jeri. I did not realize that those simple goals would take the fulllllllllll week, including most of Sunday! But, now I have an almost-fully functioning laptop, I'm awaiting the email confirmation on the ticket, and the office is getting cozy -- a new little throw rug, some of my travel photos hung on the walls (thanks to the frames that Joey brought to us from Ikea when he visited in July!!)
Vacation was fab!
We were in Anchorage, Denver, NYC, and London with the bulk of our time being in Anchorage. "Bulk" is the appropriate term, indeed, as Jim and I had personal "excess baggage" from all of the eating we did while at my Mom and Dad's. It must have been this subtle fear that we would soon lose the availability of the much-loved and familiar foods that caused us to eat and eat ...
I'll post some photos as the internet speed allows. And I'll begin to catch up on the Nigeria stories. Helmets ... I must tell you about the helmets! And what the immigration guy told us in London ...
It was such a treat to see friends in AK and in Denver (though we ran out of time to catch up with friends in Denver!!!) Great memories!
