Learning To Fly

Things here in Dallas continue to improve - I'm getting more familiar with the area around my new job in Irving (partly by exploring, partly thanks to Mapquest and partly by asking anyone I see how I get to XYZ place). However, as of tomorrow morning, I'm going to be leaving the Extended Stay hotel and moving over to Flower Mound (a northern suburb - northwest of Irving) to stay with Tammy from work for a little while. If the house situation goes on longer than another week, I'll probably go back to the hotel near work. I'm becoming kind of a nomad and I'm not a huge fan of that, partly because it's a pain to keep moving/being mobile, partly because just when Maggie gets accustomed to a routine, I change it! I guess God is trying to teach me patience in a big way - or He has a really warped sense of humor! Agh!

My job continues to go well - I'm learning a lot and I really like the people. I think it's the right fit - what I've been looking for. I think I'll be able to enjoy it more once I have a place to live and everything calms down in other parts of my life. Once I'm settled, I think I'll be really happy here in the Dallas area!

Sidenote: It's pretty late and I found an amazing Tom Petty concert on public TV. It's AMAZING - he is doing part of the concert totally acoustic. He is just so talented and sounds fabulous even after all these years (his voice has faired much better than Bob Dylan's - that's for sure!) - no wonder they chose him to play at the SuperBowl this year.
I hope you are all doing well - email me updates on your lives! I get sick of just thinking about my own life - I really want to know what you are all up to! Keep the comments coming - I love to hear what you think (but remember to sign your name if you leave an anonymous comment so I know who you are).
HAPPY EASTER!!
