Last day in Odessa

Yesterday was a bit rough.  Nothing major just hard being stuck in this little room.  I tried to take EM out for a walk but she wanted to "go see Seamus" before we had even gotten a block.  But then when we get back she gets bored and starts acting like any bored 6 year old.  running laps and throwing herself on the couch and wanting to play on my Kindle for hours.  Seamus is the same. chasing her, throwing himself down, fit pitching.  Have I mentioned I can not wait to get home so they can go out and play in the yard when they get all that pent up energy?

Don't get me wrong, things really are good.  But I know I am bored, so I can not imagine how bored the kids must be.  Today I have spent the morning packing, cooking, and cleaning.  We are going to head out for lunch in just a few minutes.  That should take up almost half the day.  Then we are going to go to the square.  Maybe if Seamus comes she will be cool with it.

We haven't heard any word on the passport.  I am hoping we get some news by 2 or 3.  We won't leave for the train station until about 9:30 tonight.  The train will arrive in Kiev 6 tomorrow morning. Then my embassy appt is at 8:30. I don't really know yet what that entails or if her medical is on Tuesday or Wednesday.  If you know me you know I like to have some plan.  I hate being in the dark, but am getting better at it.

That is about it.  Just climbing the walls over here and thankful we will have a change of scenery soon.  Nervous about how everyone will do on the train tonight, but still excited about getting to ride the train again.  I will hopefully have internet in Kiev and will post soon if I can.
