Our Story So Far...

Okay, everyone, you asked for it, so here it is... a fantastic blog describing our life in China for the next three years. (Except that we're not in China yet.) Life's been a bit busy lately, so here's a (very) brief recap just in case anyone missed anything.

  • January - spent the afternoon of Inauguration Day interviewing for the job
  • February - we're accepted! Jane puts an ad up to rent out our apartment, and we get prospective tenants one week later. Go Jane!
  • March - I start out the month getting assaulted while riding my bike home from work, breaking several bones in my cheek. Reconstructive surgery follows, and lots of prescription-strength painkillers.
  • April - Spending spring break getting all of our belongings out of the apartment and into storage. Back to work after six weeks of recovery time.
  • May - Camping out at a friend's house while finishing packing and oh, about six trillion different closure tasks.
  • June - More of the same for the first two weeks, and the last two weeks of school. Now in Colorado on the first leg of a six week closure tour around the U.S. Details to follow.
There you have it - how to get to China in six easy months! Stay tuned for the next post, where I describe how to build Rome in only one day...
