Adventures on planes, trains and automobiles

Le sigh. I would be remiss if I were to only blog about the good stuff. Dave is at his first day of school and let me tell you something: it is lonely here! Yesterday was a day full of highs and lows. I should start by saying my biggest fears with this whole moving…
