Countdown

Word of advice: don't ever buy a house the week you are getting ready to leave the country for an extended amount of time. Not a good idea, no matter what anyone tells you!!

If I can make it through this next day, then I'm pretty sure there's not much the Kurds could throw on me that I couldn't handle.

So I bought one of my Dad's houses that wasn't selling, of course I got a great deal... but loans and insurance and moving and family drama on top of preparing to move to Iraq has proven to be quite stressful. I'm still not a coffee drinker, but my chai tea consumption has risen considerably.

I will be leaving TN Friday, meetings in DC on Saturday and flying out of Dulles Sunday night. I have two nights in Vienna, rough I know. Then on the 10th I fly into Erbil to see my new home for the first time!

I want to use this blog as a place where ya'll can keep up with me in case I get too busy to send out emails! I'll also be posting pictures here, so I hope you enjoy.

See ya'll later!
