We have a fun and busy weekend planned and today is organizing day (in which I am writing blog posts instead of working mind you).
Tomorrow night we're having a goodbye dinner for our friends C & P and their three cute little girls. They'll be moving in three weeks to the north of France and we're of course heading to Mexico in two months. C is one of my few French friends and I've really taken her living up the mountain from us for granted. P and Seb are inseperable chatting on the phone three times a week so it's sure to be a late night.
On Sunday Jess arrives (insert several exclamation marks please!!!). I haven't seen her in a while but I'm sure we'll pick up right where we left off without missing a beat. I just wish she were staying longer and we had more time. Four days is not nearly enough time. It's another sad goodbye to a very good friend.
I'm starting to hate this scenario. It's so hard to think of leaving!

Jess only told me the other night she's coming to visit you! Don't worry it's not a proper goodbye, we have a cunning plan to try and visit you in Mexico! It may never happen but hey we can dream :)
Changes are hard, but I bet there are good things in store for you in Mexico.
I read your comment on Doc's blog, and one change I can't wait to make is to get rid of our crappy Renault cars. We have an epileptic Scenic and a tetue Twingo, that doesn't always want to start. I swear, our next car is going to be Japanese. We've also had a Renault 5, and a Clio, all pieces of crap. They all make a Multipla look mighty fine.
Though we only know each other through our blogs, "good byes" are always hard for me and I'm sad to see you go...soon. Enjoy every minute of these last few months! :)
Yes it's going to be weird to leave behind all my blog friends in France. I don't think they have the same tight circle of blogging expats in Mexico (or at least I haven't run across many). It's funny but most of the Mexico blogs I've run across rarely update. I think it must be the sun!
I'm sure you'll find expat bloggers in Mexico..but maybe there isn't the same concept of time!
I do find it strange, too, when French expat bloggers go elsewhere.
One of my best American expat friends is moving back to the States next summer after over 20 years here...sniff...
2 months?! That is so soon!
I hope that you continue blogging in Mexico. Even though you're leaving behind friends and family here, I think it's great that you'll be so close to other friends and family back in Florida! =o)
