So, here we are at the end of an another year.  Boy, were has time gone?  

What a year!!  A year of change.  This time last year we were still in North Carolina getting ready for the chapter of our journey.  Now, back in Texas I think we can look back on a successful year in so many ways.  The move was a success and I think we have settled down here pretty well.  There are still things we miss, but, I think the transition went better than I hoped for an expected.

So, this leads to the new year.  I think it has to be a year of consolidation.   We definitely need to find a Spiritual home.  Our church in Raleigh and the folks there are the thing we miss and missed the most.  I really hope and pray that early in 2012 we will have found a community here.   I also want to write more, or, at this point I should almost say start again.  By this I mean writing poetry again, or just posting on my blog.  

With a few hours to go in 2011 I would like to say to my wonderful bride.  Thanks for this exciting journey and here's to many more.  I love you!!
