Transitioning

My life is changing again. I have always said I planned to return to Texas whenever my mom passed away. I would have staying in Ohio forever if it meant mom was still alive, but sadly that isn't the case. I just started trying to figure out how to get back to Texas a few days ago. I figured it would be at least a month or two, maybe more before I managed to get back down there. I had planned to send my resume to people and then try to package several interviews together in one or two weeks, so I could drive down and stay with friends while I interviewed.

I talked to a close friend from high school last night and she made me an offer I couldn't refuse. She and her husband have had some positive changes in their employment over the past few months and they needed a hand in helping get their son to and from places and someone to watch him at times. They offered to let me stay at their home rent free. I will be helping out with their son. As an added bonus, I am going to do some part-time marketing for his insurance agency so I can make some money as well. I'm really excited about the situation because it seems to be a win-win for everyone involved. It will allow me to be in the DFW area for interviews which will be a lot easier than trying to go back and forth. I don't even know if that would have ever worked.

So, I am packing up my car with whatever it will hold and I'm heading to the metroplex on Feb. 26. I can't wait to be home again.
