We moved from Utah to North Carolina the first part of July. We went out on a leap of faith, left a lot of our family, to live on the other side of the US. At first it seemed like the place to be, Jenn was working from home and I hit the job market. I had a couple job offers, they were fair, but none of then enticed me the way I was hoping for.
I worked for this company called Hatch Beauty as a Warehouse Lead, I had five guys under me. This company made soaps and beauty products for companies like CVS, Trader Joe's, and Walgreens. From the first day I was there, there was so much dis-organization, that I just felt uncomfortable with that job. Not that I thought I couldn't handle the job, or the strong personalities I would have to lead, I didn't feel safe about the area.
Was this a place I would like my children to grow up? Is this where I truly want to live? That brings me to my next topic.
We decided to move to Florida!! We went on vacation down there (not our first) and from the moment on, I had the plan that we would make the move to live down in Florida. I did some apartment hunting and ended up finding a place that was reasonably priced, and not too far from all the attractions, yet didn't have a touristy feel. I'm excited, that's all I have to say about that.
We couldn't move in to our new place until Halloween, since they didn't have any open leases at the time, but we figured we could wait.
Now here I lay, basically a day away from our move and I'm just hoping for the best.
In ways I'm going to miss NC, I do love their BBQ, and other local places. But I hope this move will also help me get back into better shape. We need to not eat out as much, and I need to be active in sports and exercising.
This is a little side note, but I've been thinking lately about how I seem to forget lots of stuff that happens everyday. I don't want to write a full length journal or something like that, I just want to get a note pad and write down minor stuff that happens each day, or if certain memories come to me, I want to have it for later.
Anyway, that's my update for now. I wanted this blog to be more of a video blog, but I don't know when I'd ever get around to it, so some may be videos, and some may be writings.
