You're right and we will be around though I have a little adventure planned to head down to New Zealand to deal with my van (lol crazy story) in October/November. Dad's not able to make any decisions since this side of the world scares him haha I'm going to work on the plans soon, once I get a free minute which seems to be hard to find with these pups running wild!
That's so exciting about your godchild! My lease is up in May so I'll be here around then but I am hoping when I get kicked out to possibly do some of Europe that has been calling me in my dreams for ever!
I love my dad too but he's a big, Italian chef who loves pizza, cheese, and meat so it's hard to be around him. He's got an aggressive stance on food obviously and doesn't like his baby 'starving' LOL I am planning on cooking for him and hoping to change his opinion, would be awesome if I had reinforcements- we could do a surprise rehab for him in Cambodia- he'd never know what hit him when a pretty lady like you showed up feeding him your delicious meals <3
