- Erik boards a homeward bound plane in a one month. He gets to wrap his arms around everyone I love so dearly three weeks sooner than I do. I am partly jealous, but mainly just sad that he will be leaving me. I am excited to go on an adventure on my own! At least I will be onmy own until Lynn picks me up at the airport.
- I think I am going to go through some pretty intense Erik-withdrawal when he leaves. We have spent every moment of every day together and I have loved it!!
- I am looking forward to Australia -- so looking forward to it. I cannot wait to see Lynn and to be in a home!!! She was gracious enough to not say no when I told her I was coming for three weeks. That is an exceptionally long time for a houseguest. I will have to be on my best behaviour.
- We are in Lobmok, Indonesia. I have to admit that Indonesia is my favourite country in South East Asia (of the one's we have visited, obviously). They have all been wonderful, but there is something about this place that gives me the warm fuzzies.
- We went for a scooter ride around part of the island yesterday and it was breath-taking!! So green and lush with rolling hills, rice patties and a stunning ocean view. Amazing.
- Erik and I will have two new babies in our family by the end of the month, one Jansen and one Olson (...kind of). Erik's sister, Shawna, and my sister-in-law, Courtney, are due at the end of the month, just one day apart from each other. I cannot wait to "meet" the little ones. And I cannot wait to hear the birth stories. I am a sucker for birth stories.
- I love rice. I love eating rice with every meal. I need to eat less of it when I come home, but it is delicious. I like it plain, fried, with or without sauce, hot, cold, any which way. It is so good.
- I love the availability of vegetables in South East Asia! Veggies were scarce is South America, but they are plentiful in these parts! How can people survive without eating vegetables?
- And that is all I have to say this morning. It is shaping up to be another beautiful day in paradise!

Oooooo . . . rice and vegetables in a nice sauce with some meat mixed in?? Pure bliss. I'm so glad you're enjoying where you're at. It sounds really nice.
You're going to go through mega withdrawals, I would think. Erik too. It is just so nice to be together. It will be hard to be apart, though short periods of separation have their perks as well. Still, it will be hard I'm sure.
I can't believe you're so close to the end! I can't believe I'm so close to the end [of this pregnancy]. Seriously. Only a couple of weeks left for me, then I'm going to see what this little fella looks like. Whoa.
Rice and vegetables. Scrump.
