Today was a regrouping planning emotional kind of day. You may have picked up that yesterday I was a bit sad which is why I came back to San Jose. It's really nice being here because I feel I can relax completely knowing nobody's going to steal my passport and there won't be bugs in the cereal.
It's been emotional for a couple of reasons - I had some sad news this morning but then I also had some very happy news. I've been asked to be my friend's baby's godmother! I got an email saying I'm going to be named godparent in absentia and I burst into tears (I cried a lot today)
I also got to hang out with my "fake family"

| My funcle John in his mancave |

| My fousin Zander and his lapdog (his joke not mine) |
 |
| My fousin Natasha - love her! |
Now I'm trying to get away from California (trying) In case you're wondering what I look like when I'm in planning mode:
Right, I'm off to bed. Tomorrow I'm going to buy some proper hiking boots (I've gone through two pairs of cheap trainers/sneakers already) and then I'm heading towards the Sequoia National Park.
We are waiting here in Chicago with open arms! Can't wait to see you! But I understand the siren call of California, too . . .
