San
Antonio appears to be our next place to call home. As readers of my blog you
all know that the hubs and I are both nurses and currently I am a house wife
working on my health and the hubs is still in school working on his doctorate
in nursing education. Our potential move is due to his education, a wonderful
clinical opportunity has culminated in San Antonio which we have been searching
for, for almost a year. So even though, I am super spoiled to coastal living (translate:
go to the ocean every single free day) I am being supportive and looking at the
fun side of exploring San Antonio.
As
a native Texan, I of course know the tourist side of San Antonio, but it was always,
love to visit, not live there type of opinion. After living almost ten years in
Wichita Falls, you know the place that is Hotter'N Hell
and is known to be so hot that your car tires crack and street lamp
post melt in August, I know sounds miserable. I was so enjoying the cool summer
of Galveston in 2012, that the prospects of summer in San Antonio this year
2013, I am not lying has got me a bit bummed. Of course, I will keep myself
busy and perhaps now that I am over 100lbs lighter the summer heat will not
feel so suppressive.
Things I am focused on to keep up my spirits.
1. On the occasion that Marnie's Musings - YouTube
has a meet up at the local Mall, I will finally be able to attend
with the other viewers.
2. I
have 30 Calico
cotton skirts that I will get to be dressed in and look
preppy and lady like in this summer. Due to the skirts are hand sewn and
customized by me, I have to admit that my style and taste is not to everyone’s habit,
but its all part of "living
your best life." I know I should be embarrassed to own that many
skirts but I am not. I have been collecting them over years of summers
and each one is so unique and pretty.
3. I
have noticed that as we get older (mid 40’s) the hubs and I enjoy educational
activities, we are both looking forward to going on numerous history and ghost tours
. We are both very familiar with the Mexican culture, especially being
Texas Nurses (OMG, how we are pushed,
scolded and forced to except being culturally sensitive as a nurse, trust
me, nurses are the #1 non-judging people on the planet, it’s our job) sorry I
digressed, we are looking forward to exploring the Mexican culture that is
San Antonio.
Final event to take place before moving away from
South Houston, go visit Space
Center Houston - NASA Tour
It's official as of this week we will be moving. We are apartment shopping soon. OMG so bummed to be away from Galveston Island this summer! (Tear eyed)
