Moving to ATX

There has been a severe lack of posting going on here. I feel as though I really haven’t had anything interesting to write about - until now.

This Friday Gord and I are making the drive to Austin, TX permanent-like. We decided in January that the place we best like in world to live (at least at this point in our lives) is Austin so why don’t we just move there.

Our sabbatical in Harveyville has been great. The original plan was to take a break from the daily grind for 3 months (Oct - Dec) and come January we’d look for a job and move to wherever that job was located. Well, finding a job when the address on your resume is a 100-person town in the middle of Kansas is a little tricky so we’re just gonna dive in with both feet and move to Austin, knowing that employment will come to us soon enough.

I would highly recommend the Harveyville sabbatical to anyone looking for a little me-time. The folks here are super nice and dinner is cooked for you. I am ready to rejoin the world though. Its been almost 5 months and I feel ready to get back to my regularly scheduled programming.

We’re in a mess of boxes right now. And I’ve been having my typical moving-stress-induced headaches for the past couple days, but in all, we’re in really good shape. Half of our stuff is still in boxes from when we moved to Harveyville from KC, including all the kitchen stuff which I find to be the most time consuming to pack. Pretty much all that’s left are clothes, tech equipment, and miscellaneous odds and ends. Its not too bad, but I am looking forward to the move being over.

I’ll post more once we arrive in ATX. Until then…

    Hey Lisa,

    I didn’t have your email address handy, so I thought I’d return a blog comment… ;) . The drive was about what you’d expect it to be but it’s over now. In Vegas for another show as we speak. Have a safe trip to Texas, and keep in touch.
