We're going to move.  It's really going to happen.  We have expected it was really going to happen but never had anything tangible until now.  Within the next week, Steve will be in Maryland and begin to work on his new project and hopefully look for a house or apartment for us.  Yes, we also have to sell our house, but I'd rather not think about that.  The best we can do there is get our house looking as close to a model home as possible and hope that somebody wants it. 

All of that being said, I am guessing that my posts will become sparce after the next few weeks.  I'll be visiting my parents for a short time then moving up to Maryland.  Once the kids and I get up to Maryland, things are likely to get very busy.  I'll be finding new doctors, looking at places (if we haven't chosen one), and figuring out the lay of the land.  Also, I get to prepare for winter.  A REAL winter!  I'm excited and a bit nervous.  After all, I've driven in a bit of ice a couple times, but I have no clue what snow will be like.  And then there's all the cute winter clothes that I will actually need.  I'm sure I'll post about all of that excitement after I get started on it. 

In the meantime, here's to Texas.  I'm probably not going to miss the state (and who can blame me at this time of year), but I'll miss quite a few people who live here and some of the delicious food that won't be matched (I'll miss you Tex-Mex).  And, here's to Maryland.  You're bringing me closer to friends I have so missed and will give me an opportunity to live a different kind of life.  Cheers!
