UPDATE - Finally

An update of what we've done this summer.

First, we went to the US for 2-1/2 months to visit family and friends. It was nice spending time with my grandmother and my brother, SIL, and nieces/nephews. It was good for the kids to get to know that side of their family as well. Being pregnant, I got homesick and we ended up coming back to the UAE at the end of June instead of at the beginning of September as planned. While there in the US, I "ran into" (online) a friend from High School. It was nice chatting and catching up. She has a lovely family and seems to be very well. I was really happy to know that as I had wondered about her often.

Of course when we got back to Abu Dhabi, the weather was *HOT* but that was expected. The kids were happy to be home and have their own space back. The weather is starting to cool off now, just in time for me to be a bit too tired to really go out much. Poor kids.

Now, I'm just waiting for baby to show up, hopefully will only be a couple of weeks or so. Assuming all is well and everyone is healthy, we are planning on going to Egypt about mid-January or beginning of February. I don't know how long we will be staying, probably for a few months. Then it is either back to the US to finish up my schooling or back here to the UAE depending on far too many factors to list here.

So basically life is rolling along, uneventfully, for which I am thankful and would be perfectly happy if it continues like that.

Will be back once there is something new and/or interesting to post. LOL.
