Last night we (V and I) went to a cocktail party thrown by one of the general surgeons that V works with. He lives in a huge house in a very nice neighborhood. Lovely to chat with adults! The night was glorious and very windy. This morning we were awaken by a phone call from the twin's school... No school for them today. The power got knocked out in the area of the school. So, entertaining 8 year olds all day! Yippee! A visit to Targé, to buy pants for J and then picked up L from high school.

My friend published a recipe from "The Cooking of Vienna's Empire," by Joseph Wechsberg. Transylvanian Goulash I was drooling by the time I finished reading the recipes! Funny because I just finished reading Julia Child's autobiography My Life in France, and I want to buy Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and cook like crazy!!! Of course, all the pans are packed and I can't buy ingredients that I can't use immediately!!!! Whaaa!

Just want this move to be over!

Tuesday

Up at 4 - can't seem to sleep! go figure!

Kids to school. Lydia's boyfriend broke up with her by text!!!!!! Little s***! He couldn't have waited 3 weeks until we move out of the country!?

Lydia had a CAT scan yesterday, so I'm on tender hooks waiting for results.

Need to change out the bike pedals and go biking, but it is drizzly and windy and brrrr! the longer I sit here the less motivated I am, again, go figure!

So much little stuff to get accomplished today. I think I'll start with a nap.
