We have been here in Santa Fe for 2 weeks now, and don't know whether we will be here for a few more days or a few more weeks. It has been really nice to be here. We've done things we don't normally have time to do. Matt helped his dad repair a leaky pipe buried in a corner of a bathroom. He also repaired a washed out driveway. Lindsay has been indexing names for family history, going to a class on world religions with Matt's mom, playing the piano, learning Arabic, running, baking, and just enjoying getting to know Matt's parents better. She tried getting a job subbing in the local schools, but found out it would be at least a 2 week process, and an expensive one (it included getting a New Mexico teaching license)! We have weeded, played with our kitties, gone to two movies, and read a lot of Facebook, e-mails, and blog posts about Abu Dhabi. We even celebrated our 2nd Anniversary on 13 August 2013!
We don't know yet what the future brings, but we are at peace and know that we are where we need to be right now. We are patiently waiting for tickets to arrive and the next chapter to begin.
