Tuesday was pretty uneventful. We began to gather our stuff together, as we’re leaving first thing Thursday, and tried to eat everything we still had in the fridge. 😫 I worked on laundry, dishes, and general cleaning, and once Paul got home from work, we cooked pasta for dinner. #HowCliche

We also had a discussion about Paul’s future travel schedule. 😕 Originally, we were going to fly back to California (this Thursday), and spend two weeks relaxing before driving home to Kansas. 🌻 He planned to be back at his home base office on Monday, July 16th. And we already knew he had to go to Brazil on August 5th, for two weeks. But we learned last weekend that he has to return to Italy right away. So. 🛫 We are still leaving for California this Thursday, where we will stay for a few weeks, relaxing and visiting my mother #oxymoron, then Paul will fly out of San Diego and right back to Italy. 🇮🇹 He (for now, at least), will then fly back to Kansas in August sometime, just in time to turn around and go to Brazil. 🇧🇷

Confusing, huh? I’ll drop him at the San Diego airport, and then make my way back to Kansas in our trusty little blue Veloster. We had debated leaving California earlier and still driving home to Kansas together, but this way he gets the most use of his vacation until the last minute. 😌 He has been in our house a grand total of two weeks this year, and those weren’t even consecutive. One week in January and one week in March. #Burnout 😤
