We're somewhere in Nebraska. Highlights of today: Um... Flat. Not the prettiest part of this incredible continent, especially in winter.
The best part was when Figgy's carrier came apart as I was bringing him into the hotel, and he ran for the car, but hesitated before diving under it so I caught him. *whew*

Road, Day 1
Today started with a mad dash back to PA from NJ (we had to drop Preston off at a holding site- he's going to live in NC), a whirlwind clean-up (THANK YOU!!!!! to Denise, who saved our butt soooo many times over...), professional carpet cleaning, walk-through with the landlord, and WHOOSH (at 12:30) we... were... outa there!!
We just checked into a hotel in Indiana. Time to lie down!

Movin' on out
Today is our last big packing day. The moving truck comes tomorrow. Wensleydale gets a lift tomorrow, too. Then there's the final scrubdown, Stanley Steamer, and the walkthrough with our paranoid landlord. If all goes as planned, we drive away Thursday AM. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
Remember we won't have internet after Wed am, so call if you want me!

Here's what we know...
We know we are returning to Portland soon. We do not have an exact date. We had planned early March, but our landlord decided to ignore our verbal contact (discussed multiple times since before the last annual renewal) and now refuses to let us leave early. Jerk. Since we are stuck paying rent through April, and Matt hasn't signed yet.... *sigh* Watch this space. I am considering it tuition in the university of life. From now on, I'll get it in writing.
I have found a wonderful woman to take care of my patients, but I probably shouldn't announce it officially until we've signed paperwork (see, I'm learning!).
It's going to be interesting, financially, with no income in March. Hopefully Dr. Matt will be employed soon. We're getting great offers (financially speaking) but they are out in the wilds of Oregon. It's all about finding the right clinic that will put us near the kids. We've learned that with jobs, as with love, it's best to hold out for what you really want. :)
