This is it. A year and half of planning, saving, buying vouchers, and working at work and at home until the very last minute to get to this point. We both worked yesterday, me day one at Capital Health School of Nursing. It was one and done as my five-day hospital orientation was cut short by this vacation. When I get back it's week one for the kids at the school in Trenton.
This morning, instead of packing, we were taking down and trimming doors to get ready for the tile guy who's going to finish up the mud room and bathroom renovation. We'll be over in Ireland for 13 days, returning on August 18th, Ryan's birthday. Theresa and I will be joined by the two youngest, Lauren and Erin, 23 and 20 respectfully. That's a long time away and in tight quarters. It should be one for the books.
