The Crazy 5 Weeks

So, we knew that the only way we could work Dave's assignment to Hungary was for the kids and I to come back early. And, as the school schedule ran, it worked out that we had to come back five weeks early. But, five weeks is a LONG time to be apart! I know Dave has been super lonely by himself in Hungary and we (I) are all exhausted here trying to get back into the swing of things.

But, he's coming home tomorrow, September 18. YEA! We are all very much looking forward to being on the same continent.

We'll have to take it easy this weekend, though. Nathan got diagnosed with shingles today. Poor guy! He was complaining that his upper arm hurt, and when I took him to the doctor earlier this week, they thought it was just some bruising. After taking him back today and insisting that something else was wrong with him (and having 2 doctors look at him!), they diagnosed him with shingles. So much for keeping us all healthy while Dave was gone! But, hopefully since he's young and since he's had the chicken pox vaccine, he will recover fairly quickly.

So, please send some well wishes Nathan's way. THANKS!
