My morning was spent getting an international driver's permit from AAA and making copies of taxes followed by being stuck in traffic for an extra 30 minutes.
My afternoon was spent grilling hot dogs and tilling the garden. The rhubarb is budding from the ground and the strawberries are already blossoming!
Poor J is sick with some kind of cold. We think it's a combination of no recuperation from jet lag and being in a new country. After her in- processing today, she apparently has the townhouse she liked in line for us pending some finances from the army. It has a fenced in yard for Etsy, is 1/2 mile from the train, and is approximately 10 minutes of driving from her job. It also has several stories and at least 4 bedrooms. Bear in mind that closets don't typically come with homes, so one of those rooms may be simply for clothes:)
I was reminded of how the APO system works again. Since we already have one, we can have things shipped to us on Germany already! I'll have to tell our relatives what our APO is.
I also learned that we need pet insurance for Etsy. This is a new one. I'm beginning to feel like Germans don't like dogs very much: restricted breeds for importation, required pet insurance, very certain places where the kennel may be placed, a no barking ordinance... The latter could prove to be a challenge.
As an aside, I'm finding my iPod to be quite handy for blog posts lately as opposed to using my laptop. I'll have to keep it with me more frequently for pictures and videos. The added bonus is that the resolution of said media will be much better than from my phone.

It does sound like they really don't want dogs. Probably some history there. Love, Mom
