welcome to houston . . .

By Lesle | March 19, 2008

Here’s the deal.

Every time I visit some place, I want to move there.  It’s weird.  Maybe I just crave a variety in my life that I’m not used to getting.  It’s a cool notion to daydream about, but my reality is I’m covered by a wave of comfort whenever I return home.

I get giddy when I hear the pilot say, “Welcome to Houston.”  Or, when I read the words Houston City Limits.

Houston is definitely home.

I have been contemplating moving closer to my sister in Dallas.  But I think this is probably not the time.  There are some things that I want to accomplish, and some issues with the kids . . . I’m thinking staying put is the right choice right now.  Though, I’m not completely ruling out the possibility of moving in the future.

So, I just got back from Chicago.  It was awesome.  It was in the low 30s, but clear skies, it was very nice.  I had a wonderful visit with friends . . . actually got some scrapbooking in.  I’ll definitely have to take the kids for a visit.  Of course I thought about moving there, but that would be such a drastic life change, I’m not sure I could handle the climate change.  Maybe visiting in the spring is the best choice.

I have pictures to share, but I downloaded them on my new computer and I haven’t quite got it organized yet.  So I’ll work on that in the next couple of days.  More to follow soon . . .

    Glad the trip was good. Hmmm if you want to move somewhere when you visit, should I have you visit me?
