750 Days To Go...

...AND COUNTING!!!

750 days from yesterday - October 6, 2010 - will mark ten years since I arrived in Switzerland. I have told Mrs. TBF that ten years of living in Switzerland WILL BE ENOUGH.

OK...yeah...I know, it would have been more meaningful if I had blogged about this yesterday when it was really 750 days to go instead of 749, but I was too busy getting things together for the dinner we hosted last night at our apartment for seven of Mrs. TBF's work colleagues, and I didn't have even a spare minute to blog.

Wasn't it nice of them to all come over and help me celebrate?

No, there's nothing wrong. I'm not suddenly unhappy living here, I'm not sitting in the apartment pining for America, and I don't even consider myself to have one foot out the door...YET. However, I just thought that the time has come to put a deadline on this chapter of our lives. We've been saying "...two more years" for five years now, and now it's time to say 'two more years' and really mean it.

OK, actually slightly more than two years, or...

...maybe less?
