I'm finally adequately immunized and have some malaria medication. Sadly, we will be leaving our fun-loving neighbors and high-class town for Bangalore in 4 short days. George is just giddy with excitement while I am busy laboriously cleaning the apartment and moving all our junk.
We're looking forward to learning about different cultures and traditions but also hoping to take in all of life's lessons along the way. Already I've learned a few things:
1. Cleaning an oven is a horrendous task and I'm guessing a self-cleaning oven is well worth the investment.
2. Going forward, I vow to go through kitchen cabinets and refrigerators at least every few months (and by "go through" I mean, throw out anything I haven't used/eaten in the past few months).
3. Going forward, I vow to get and pay all bills online. Who needs piles and piles of useless but important papers?
4. Getting rid of shoes and clothes is not as easy.
Those are my thoughts thus far. I'm excited to add more to my list and channel the Alanis Morrisette in me.
Do you think it's a boy or a girl?

Hi Kathy and George,
So glad to hear about your experiences! I'm enjoying your writing; I feel as if I'm there! I regret that I was one who repeated an "It Smells" story without really knowing!
Keep us up to date!
Love,
Betsy
My comment says posted at 2:51, but it's 5:22 pm on Friday that I wrote it...not sure why...
Betsy
Yeah, the timing is all off. I have to fix that...
Hi from nana
I'm up to date with your mail and thrilled with all of it--also heard of your phone call to your Mom. So happy you are well and will be settled soon. By-by for now.
Hi Nana! Glad you could get to this. We are moving into our apartment tomorrow. We have our cell phones but we can't call internationally yet. We have to sign up for some service which we can't do until Monday. But we'll call soon.
Oh and Betsy, there were LOTS of people who talked about the smell...
