Our Return to the U.S.

We have just learned that for cost-cutting reasons, Thomson Reuters is going to limit Carl's assignment in London to a total of one year. That means that when our one-year lease on the London flat expires on March 1, it will not be renewed. We will be returning to the U.S. at the end of February, instead of at the end of June as originally planned.

It has been an extraordinary opportunity for us to live in London, and we are very grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our lives have been made so much richer. We have had a wonderful time, and we will take away with us memories that we will cherish forever.

However, we are not sorry to be returning home a few months early -- it is always good to come back home again.
