Sometimes I have this feeling that I would like to start my life over again. Starting over -- moving somewhere - somewhere unexpected - and building a new reputation in my career - making new friends -- doing new things -- just starting over . . . again! I did this when I moved to DFW nearly ten years ago (June 1999) - and it has been one of the BEST decisions I've ever made. I remember my life so vividly at that moment - and life was exciting!!! I was so happy - about everything - my new job - the new friends - everything! I just have moments in my life when I want that new happiness again!
Where would I go???? Boston (the winters would drive me back), Chicago (I've heard SO many wonderful things about it - but the winters . . . .ugh!), Washington, DC (I love this city and all that is stands for!!!!), anywhere on the East Coast! Not sure where I would go . . .
My teacher retirement sort of makes this only a dream. I think I'm pretty much tied to Texas for the rest of my education career. I'll have to retire here - as it makes things too complicated moving. I'm happy with living here in Dallas/Fort Worth! It is a great place to be . . . and I can stay here for a long time. I still feel lucky to be here, to be working in GCISD, and to have ALL of the friends that I have!!!
I will continue to dream of where I will go someday . . . what about Key West (happy times in Key West - but scary hurricanes are not fun), San Diego (beautiful city!!) . . . . hmmmmm, where else!
