we’ve given it 10 long months, but we are saying good by to ole new mexico. for some reason, in the past two weeks since bill found out that he was hired by the prague post (that’s right, in the czech republic), we have done nothing but celebrate and consolidate and i have not been able to pull myself up to this blog and write about it.

so, off to prague we are, and excited, oh yes very excited. bill’s new position will be as web editor and reporter for the newspaper (which is prague’s biggest and best english-language paper, we’re told). i am going to continue my foray into the world of freelance writing, and with the czech koruna backing me, i may be able to make a bit more money. i may also get a prague book out of it, who knows?

saturday, we had a huge yard sale that helped rid us of all our stuff. we’re left with a mostly empty and echoing apartment and the clothes on our backs, which will get us to prague.

i am trying to count how many times this blog has changed and it’s changing yet again – for the foreseeable future – to be a blog about life in the czech republic, a place i never dreamed i’d live and one i know next-to-nothing about.

i couldn’t be more excited.
