Random thoughts

So I realize again I haven't been keeping up to date with my Blog:

I have a new theme song - see more below it. Smiling

Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet
When the wind comes right behind the rain.
Oklahoma, Ev'ry night my honey lamb and I
Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.

We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand!
And when we say
Yeeow! Ayipioeeay!
We're only sayin'
You're doin' fine, Oklahoma!
Oklahoma O.K.

On Saturday June 21, I will be moving to Tulsa, Oklahoma - I will be leaving with the Rums and Feefee for a little while as I get my feet under me and learn the lay of the land. I have accepted the Senior Manager of Technical and Information Services for the BOK Center - it is a major promotion and will really help Celia and I (and Ruben and Isabell).

Celia, Ruben and Isabell though won't be moving out there until the end of September. Sad Skype will become my friend.

I have very mixed feelings on the move and the job - I have lived in the Atlanta region since 1992, I convinced my best friend from college to move here so we could be close. My closest friends are here and I won't have my family for about 3 months. So I may be a little crankier then you remember or a little more stressed - it won't be you it will be me. Smiling

And if you don't hear from

And if you don't hear from him for a little while it will because I killed him and buried him in one of the holes Moonie's dog has dug in the back yard...ooppse was that my outside voice?

Really though, I'm excited to have another friend here in Tulsa! And I think The Jayfoot family will like it here. And I look forward to having you with us.

Mega-grats on the promotion!

Mega-grats on the promotion! Smiling Moving away from friends is tough, but at least you can pester us online. Once you get the whole family settled there it will be grand I'm sure--just don't mention the Yankees down there, it could get ugly Shocked

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take,
but by the moments that take your breath away.

Welcome to OKLAHOMA!!

Tresin and I (Saps) were born here and have lived here all our lives. I think it's a GREAT place to raise a family:) If Rummy pushes you around too much... don't worry... there are more friends around. The Tulsa area is a really nice place to live, I think you'll grow to like it. Smiling

HA! I have only met Saps

HA! I have only met Saps once or twice in all these years Razz But Tresin manages to drag his tail into the office once a week or so. We will all have to get together some evening.
