Lemons Make Lemonade

Short and sweet today.  Kind of tired and got to head to bed.  Gotta get up in less than 12 hours to go to airport in the morning.

We started our 2 day trip back to the US this morning, flying out of the Crimea region and back to Kiev.  Here we will eat, shower, and sleep until our early wake up call and ride to the airport before the sun even thinks of rising in the morning.

Why are we headed home already you ask?  Well the process hand delivered some really ripe nice looking lemons in a pretty hand made basket and all we can do is sit back and make some southern style lemonade with them.  Totally unexpectedly, we are having to wait an unprecedented amount of time to move onto the next part of our process and it makes sense to head home in the meantime.

On the negative side, we will have to make an additional trip back over here in the upcoming weeks.  On the positive side, we get to come home to loved ones and our own king size, fitted sheet, down pillow, and comfy bed.

No fear though.  We completed this portion of the process in a faster than expected pace.  Just gottta come home and get that sugar to bring back to make the homemade lemonade!

Probably won't have another blog update until back in the US sometime over the weekend.  We are excited to get home; a little anxious for this newly discovered wait; and hopeful for a quick resolution to our current situation.

LA has our dinner cooking and I can almost hear the pillow and bed calling my name.  1am is going to come awfully early...but we are Homeward Bound.
