On the countdown

Four days to go and I'm back in the big city, staying here . Not flash but very central. Got my new resume too - very fine! Now I just have to see if it gets me an interview.
K & I have spent the last two weekends clothes shopping. It's been riotously funny, especially when I start to point out that the outfit doesn't work! It's been great fun and K is now "adjusting" clothes and generally making everything a perfect fit. Typically too we are in a shop in Albuquerque only to find one of the staff is from NZ, recently returned to the US from Christchurch (having lived overseas for years her and her husband decided to go back to NZ but after 5 years headed back here).
The one thing I haven't done is get my drivers license - stupid but bad weather and laziness combined so that, at some point, I'll have to do it in California - New Mexico would have been so much easier I feel. Oh well can't help but create some tension in life.
We are having a staff and family get together combining my farewell with two of the staffs birthdays. I really will miss them all but expect I will visit at various times!
Not much else to add at this point - snow continues to melt, calves are being born, dogs still need walking and I've almost finished painting the greenhouse (with some much welcome help from Renee and Kate).
