Long, long overdue update:

On October 3rd, I received my written job offer from Big California Company. On October 4th, my husband got his. We're moving!

I haven't had a migraine since October 2nd. Coincidence? You decide.

I am frantically packing and tidying so that the carpet people can come (not the Pratchett ones), after which we can formally put the house on the market.

Our lives are turning up.
