SURPRISE!


Please ignore my previous post. It would seem that we are, in fact, NOT moving! I know, I know...you think your head is spinning trying to keep up with us...try being US!

I don't really want to get into all the details, but the fact of the matter is, the timing is just WRONG.

Moving to Indiana and taking a job with Hanapin is the right decision for ME, but it's not the right decision for my family. WOW is it hard to come to terms with that!

Remember this post? Well, I've been re-visiting that ALOT lately. That and about a GAZILLION other things...In fact, here's WB's question for me the other day, "When you're 62 and you're writing your memoirs, what do you want to be writing about?"

I realized that I want to write about my family, about my friends (about YOU) and about my wacky bus tour company. I like Search Engine Marketing ~ I really do. And isn't that fortunate? I feel pretty lucky that I do, just so happen to enjoy doing the job that's paying all of our bills (mostly). But still, it's not really that notable. I mean sure, who doesn't love being successful and seeing their work benefit the company that's paying them? It's just that in the grand scheme of things, I don't find it particularly fulfilling to help companies get an edge over their competition through online marketing tactics.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not going to quit doing what I'm doing. And in fact, I may have to work a little harder to make it all happen. I don't exactly have anything lined up, now that I've turned down Hanapin's offer. Oh yes...we are in a rather precarious place! Certainly, there were atleast two other companies vying for my services, but whether or not their offers still stand remains to be seen.

OY! We may have just screwed ourselves over royally...but I'm oddly all right with it. Other than the In-Law drama that would probably follow me wherever I move, I'm very happy that we're staying put for the time being.

This doesn't mean that we're here for the long haul. In fact, I'm fairly certain that we will be relocating in the not too terribly distant future, but it won't be happening next month!

At the very least, this should mean that we will be relatively stress free this weekend and we can't wait!!! We are SOOOO excited to see you all!
