I'm having some serious blog guilt right now. I haven't posted about all our trips and my son's birthday, haven't gone through the hundreds of photos to send to our family, just behind on things.
I leave for a TDY (temporary duty) in London in about 1.5 weeks, and I have two major work projects to finish in my spare time, while also working in NIV for 2 weeks (where they are swamped and under staffed) and trying to wrap up cases in IV (where they are swamped and under staffed).
I wanted to stay late today to work on said projects, but was slammed by an allergy attack this am, which caused me to sneeze every two seconds while interviewing applicants. Rather embarrassing and miserable, not to mention gross. Going home was not an option! But staying late was not either.
We submitted our bid list on Sunday, so in the back of my head I'm wondering where we will be posted (my guess: China) and when we will know. I'm counting the days. Hoping to hear by early next week.
So, I have a few minutes w/o the kids at home...I'm going to go organize some photos or something.
We packed up the family and joined the Foreign Service in 2011. Currently in: Mexico City, Mexico!

Can't wait to hear where your next post will be!
Wow! That would mean language classes, right?
yes, Debbi, I think 95% of our 30 bids contain language training - we are very hopeful that we'll have a good long stay in DC.
