So here we stand on the precipice..

I am doing it.  I have done it.  I have started a blog.  Hopefully I will be able to maintain my blog and it will not wither away like a plant with no water.  I am always so inspired by the witty, intelligent things people always appear to be able to write in their blogs.  Maybe this will have the effect of making me witty and intelligent?

By next week hopefully Luca will know what is happening with his job and the future will be made slightly clearer .  As clear as mud they say..  If he gets offered a job in Seattle or if we look elsewhere.  One thing is inevitable.. sometime within the next 3 months we will be moving somewhere else.  Sad really as Miami was growing on me.    But quite honestly, after 5 years at sea, I am ready for a change.  The restless feet are ready to move.  Maybe one day we will stay in one place for a while.. maybe one day we will be more 'normal'.  Though what is that really?  The eternal quest for 'normality'.

So thus begins the stories and adventures of me and my little peanut in the big, bad, exciting world...
