It's beginning to feel a lot like...Memorial Day.

People frequently ask us how our transition is going. We can answer completely honestly that it has gone very well. We have been healthy, have had relatively few difficulties in establishing a home and various services, and even anticipate that our residency paperwork will go through soon. We are very happy in our home and find our church home equally comfortable.
The only "problem" is that Christmas is 20 days away but my brain thinks it is late spring because the sun shines every day and the temperatures are in the 70s. Having lived almost our entire lives in places where there are four distinct seasons this two-seasons-only-really-differing-in-the-amount-of-rain-that-falls thing will take some getting used to. It was helpful that last week a cold front came through and temperatures dipped occasionally into the 50s. We could pretend that it was autumn. (It was also humorous to see the Hondurans bundling up as if an Arctic blast had struck.)
But if this is the only thing we have to complain about, we're doing pretty well, no?
