It has been about 5 years since I’ve written anything, so here’s a little update about what’s been going on with me.

1. We moved back to the states in 2013.
2. I have returned to Europe 3 times since then, and I will be returning once again in a couple weeks via military hops (Space-A Flights).
3. I am teaching full time at a small community college in a rural area of Washington State.
4. I am 5 years older and 20 pounds heavier than I was the last time I wrote for this blog.
5. Three of our children are grown and two of them live in their own places.
6. I have a 1-year-old grandson.
7. Caring more about fitness and being in shape rather than the number on the scale, I have been working out for about 6 months. At times there are things that get in the way of my gym participation, but I feel much better physically and that’s really all that matters.
8. I am still married to my wonderful husband who is now retired from the Air Force, and we will be celebrating our 24th anniversary this fall.
