Mental Abuse

Stanley is watching the USA hosting Turkey soccer match while simultaneously Skyping our upstairs neighbor in Istanbul....who is also watching the match.
Elle walks in and asks what the score is...Stanley says "we're ahead". Elle sees the US is trailing by 1 and replies "no, were losing".
What have we done to our kids?

72 hours before leaping has us pretty well together and ready to roll. We still have a few busy days...but once again the woman has organized us to leave a clean house and have our act together for a relaxed departure.

Trading Places

In just 72 hours I will be trading my OC pondering spot for my Istanbul balcony.
We have our last family-farewells today....then the blood strings are cut. We will have a couple of parting moments with neighbors and friends the next few days....but my eyes are already set and yearning for parts east and the Silk Road.
