May 6-8: Flying to the States.

May 8-June 5: Our family stays in homes of dear friends who live in DC area. A blessing for us but also a long time to be without our own home. The time is spent looking at a wide variety of possible homes in many different neighborhoods (a challenging job in such a big city).

May 16: Dwaine sworn in as a USAid employee. Official training begins. (Naoma on her own with boys in a strange town. Lots of time spent just finding our way around).

June 5: Move into our own place in Alexandria (remember though…we have no furniture yet. It’s all suitcase living for awhile).
President Bush essentially said that anyone who thinks that there are problems with the mammoth, unworkable immigration amnesty bill is essentially a an enemy of America, that we “don’t want to do what’s right for America.” Right.

With all due respect to the office, this President is incompetent. He and his “experts” have turned Iraq into a mess - and please note, I still think the actual invasion was a good idea and had the potential for being a positive transformative event.

It just ended and guess what the next show on this TV station is! You guessed it! The Jerry Springer Show! BIENVENU à BRISTOL!He has shown confusion and weakness towards some of most implacable foes. He has run our military into the ground. He has shown a distinct lack of leadership during some of our most tragic crises (Katrina anyone? How about the failure to push through some kind of Social security reform?). In general he has only been a “conservative” in the sense of being religious. Which, to an atheist like me is the one “conservative” trait that I don’t look for.
June 22-August 2: Naoma and the boys visit with her family and Dwaine’s family in CA.

August 5: (We hope) Our shipment arrives.

So I guess I wanted to open up this blog with a brief timeline in order to best answer those folks who have asked me, “So, does it just feel soooo good to be home again?” In complete honesty, I do not know how to answer that question. Before I can answer, I suppose I must define a few words in that sentence. What is home exactly? ‘Cause it certainly isn’t that spartan (albeit adorable) townhouse we just rented (I can’t even remember the zipcode) in a city I’ve only visited briefly.
