We have moved!! J On September 12th we moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma for my hubby’s job promotion. We had been waiting for his promotion but we were surprised at how quickly it came, especially since we were told that it probably wouldn’t be until spring 2012. It was a hectic move; 5 weeks to pack up, find a place to live in Tulsa, put our house for sale and say goodbye to everyone in the valley. Needless to say it was a tad stressful. It was a difficult decision for us to move with me loving my job and the people I work with and then the worries of selling our house and me finding a good job in Tulsa.
Now that we have been here for a month and a half, we are settled in our apartment and I have found a great job in a short amount of time. That was one of my biggest worries because of how the job market and economy are right now. I work as a government contractor for an agency for the U. S. Dept. of Energy. I have only been “on the job” for a little over 2 weeks but I like it a lot so far. While I wasn’t working I was able to unpack and set up our stuff. James loves his job and excited to see what else his company has to offer him in the future.
It’s funny how much stuff 2 people can have, plus going from a house to an apartment is not easy but we want to sell our house and get to know the area before get a house. We had a hard time finding apartments that allow bigger dogs and that weren’t less than 1000 square feet. We managed to find one and we like it. I can’t say we love it because the kitchen is tiny and I like to cook and bake so I get frustrated with it, but it is still a very nice apartment so I am thankful we found it. J
So far we have gone out and explored the area on the weekends. We checked out the casinos, the zoo, done some shopping and we went to the State Fair a few weeks ago. There are still a ton of things for us to explore and see which is why we really like it here!!
