Niels and I have returned to the States! We arrived late Thursday evening and are still recovering from the time change. I keep thinking it's Saturday, when it in fact is Friday. I'm hoping that the transition won't last long, because I really don't like being ahead a day.

It's really weird to be back; it doesn't feel like I've been gone the past 10 months. But I'm so glad to be back. I'm currently hanging out in Wheeling, spending time with Niels' family. On Sunday we'll meet up with Mom & Dad and head to Buffalo for almost 2 weeks.

It really is good to be home.
