thirtysomething...

Yeah, I know. Slack.

I'm guessing you noticed the name change. :) March 15th and we're back in the US, back in the US, back in the US of A. I for one can't wait. Not that I haven't enjoyed living in England for the past 13 months. It's been cool. Cold & wet, too. I've seen a TON of stuff that I probably would never have seen on just a week holiday to the UK. Tons of photos. Yeah I know. You haven't seen them all. See the first line in the post. I'm planning on printing a few books when I get back. We've met a great group of people here in Headcorn, and will be sorry to leave them. They have definitely made our stay here MUCH more enjoyable and sane.

I've started packing up what I can. Mainly spring/summer clothing, books, toys, basically anything I can get away without having for the next few weeks. When we moved over we had 15 boxes shipped. When it's all said and done, 25 to 30 are going back.

I'm guessing you've also noticed the new blog layout. All of my photgraphs, css files, essentially everything that gave the AAViE version it's "Look" are stored on a local UK server which I'm having to discontinue soon. Once I get the Internets set back up in Charleston, I'll get the photojournals back up. :)

The house in CHS looks GREAT! I'll do a full write-up and before-during-after photo session once we get all settled in. Heather has had some trepidation during the whole renovation until the last few sets of pictures filtered in through email. Now she can't wait to get home and into the house! :whew: I'm glad we (read: she) weren't in the US when the renovation was going on. Just thinking about seeing the house day after day in such a state of disrepair gives me the chills. Progress is definitely more visible if you can cut to the next scene without seeing all the minor dull bits in between. It's almost finished. Down to a punch list now. :yea:


So, if there were too many words to read, here's the Cliff Notes:
Blog Name Change
Blog Layout Change
Moving to US March 15th
House is just about complete.
