A few hours after I uploaded the previous post, the highly anticipated emails arrived confirming our 2 year extension to NSA Bahrain. Now I can actually get on with the process of not moving instead of critically eyeing every item and mentally deciding: stay or go? Oh, I’ll still be decluttering — tis the season, but in a way that makes us even more settled here. Calvin will be moving to his own room downstairs so he doesn’t have to be plagued by Camille keeping him awake and getting into his things while he sleeps, and the 2 other boys may want to do a room shift too. We’ll have all the time in the world this summer when we’re hibernating during our 4th Ramadan.
We also are going to figure out where we want to travel in the next 2 years. Paris, Germany and Italy for sure — oh, and Spain! Can’t forget that. Once again 2 more years isn’t going to be enough time to see it all, but we’ll get to as much as we can. We’ll also want to go back to Oman and Dubai and I still want to figure out how to get over the bridge to Saudi Arabia at least once . . .
