Whew

So hard to believe that we're back for year 5 of living in this region. Where has the time gone?

The best part of living here is all the amazing friends we've made. The hardest part of living here is having to say so many good-byes. Each year is different because so many people move away - typical expat experience. But just because it is typical doesn't make it easy.

When I began blogging 4 years ago, I never dreamt what living here would hold in store for us. I hope that being here continues to be a positive experience for us and that I can continue to be a positive influence in the world around me.

As an extra bit of whatever..........

My laptop is not feeling well these days. If it wasn't for this IPad, I would be really cut off these days. The husband is taking this little gadget when he's traveling next week. Sigh.....school begins, schedule is going to be nuts, husband traveling AND may be cut off from the wider world. Could be a rough week.

Peace.

Just read the following.......

Another blog I read out of Sohar confirmed the above. Regardless of whether or not there are riots, please read news and stay informed.
