The move back home is officially happening (and I have perfect timing, too, since the number of weekend and evening events I have to attend has obviously picked up in the past week). Even though I officially put in a two-weeks’ notice, I will probably be there for another month to allow them a smoother transition to a new staff writer.
This means that I will be a full-time stay-at-home mom through the rest of the summer, and then only God knows what fall will bring (possibly a grad school class or two, as long as I apply in time).
Anna is with her paternal grandparents at the moment, and her dad is supposed to come visit for a couple days, so they’ll have her through Monday (and possibly even Tuesday, depending on when he has to leave).
Shortly after I move back home, I’d like to go see some family in West Virginia. My great grandma was really sad that Anna didn’t come along with my mom when she visited last month.
But why stop with WV? I have family in Virginia as well, so I think I’ll try to continue to that area as well. Overall, Anna and I could be driving over 1600 miles over the course of a week 
Can’t wait to see what the summer brings!
