change of....everything?

bittersweet.
I haven’t posted anything lately in large part because I haven’t had anything to post.   Was really busy in June with summer school and packing up the house, and getting it ready for the new owners. Am so grateful that it sold.  Other plans have been gradually changing, in small ways. The biggest change was that I decided to sell my car, instead of store it with a friend, as I realized that the pesos I’d be making next year wouldn’t support a 400 dollar a month car payment. And because of that, no Seattle/ Port Angeles trip for me this summer. Couldn't afford the plane ticket. That’s been a little tough. This is the first time in years I haven’t spent my summer up north with family.
bye bye, house


We are still waiting for Caden's passport. Cannot move forward or do anything until it gets here, and time is slowly creeping away. I'm starting to worry a bit that Mexico might not happen. Our tickets are for the 7th and there's no way that we'll get all his documentation in time- get his passport sent to immigration, his birth certificate authenticated by the Secretary of State (his bc is currently in the hands of the passport office) and apply for and obtain our visas by the time we are supposed to board the plane. Our tickets are non-refundable. And they were super pricey, close to 900. May not have the funds to be able to buy new.

We'll see.
