I started the year looking to leave New Mexico and move to another store with Barnes & Noble. I went to my annual meeting in Orlando with the express intent of coming home with a new job. I had my eye on a possible new account in Utah, but that did not pan out. However, a new account and opportunity presented itself in Oklahoma. I dove on the new job like a fat kid grabs for the last piece of candy. In May I moved to Tahlequah, OK and I absolutely love it there. And not like I have said I liked other places. I always said I liked Portales, NM, but let's call a spade a spade. It sucked! I have really enjoyed living in Tahelquah. I have gotten more involved in the community in Tahlequah than I have in previous cities where I lived. I have made some new friends and have a great team at work too!
Happy Anniversary blog. I promise to spend more time with you in 2010. I said that in 2009, but I really mean it now. I have changed. I realize what my blog means to me now. Do you hear me blog? I will see you soon.
Lots of changes were in order for the whole family this year! Lindsay moved to San Antonio, Clay moved to Baton Rouge, LA and Shea and her husband Byron still live in Florida. For anyone counting, that puts my siblings and I in four different states! While communication has certainly gone down, we do seem to enjoy being around each other at holidays much more, which is no small miracle!
Les also started a new job in the insurance business. He has been all over the state and even traveled to far away lands like Montana! I think it makes him appreciate the Texas panhandle all the more!
I will be updating the blog again soon with my New Year's resolutions. I think I blogged about doing that last year, but never got around to it. One of my resolutions this year is to stop procrastinating, so this will be an immediate test of my resolve! We will not have to wait long to find out what happens.
Cole- howdy! This is Derek, not Erin.... Man if I can keep my blog going for a year, that would be great. I'm honored to be your blog buddy. I was reading your stuff. Funny. I have that same Blues Traveler CD your talking about. But not Yanni, ha ha. We should start blogging about the following TV shows:
ReplyDeleteWho's The Boss
Golden Girls
Saved By The Bell
Doogie Howser (he had a blog on that Commodore, didn't he?)
Mr. Belvedere
Growing Pains
The Cosby Show
The Wonder Years
any others?
One obvious show is missing......Saved By the Bell, although I think you would school me on that one. It would be like learning how to wax on and off from Mr. Miagi.
ReplyDeleteOthers:
Pee Wee's Playhouse
How I Met Your Mother (which is my current favorite)
