Good to hear! If you see her, give her my love and hugs :D 

Yes, we have had a lot of cloudy, gray days here lately.  I'm trying to be patient and enjoy the cooler weather because I know before long it will get REALLY hot and limits the amount of time you can spend outside.  It doesn't really make you want to do any of the yard work that needs to be done.  Makes me want to go back to bed with a good book.  haha  

I went running errands and shopping yesterday, and it was pleasant but cloudy.  When I came out of Home Depot, it was raining and getting cooler, and I never made it to HEB or Sam's, and it was already 6 p.m., so I just gave up and went home.  I hate to shop on the weekends, but looks like I may have to after all.  

Now that ski season is over I am done with snow!!! We finally got rain instead of snow earlier this week. We have had quite a few "fake springs" too. Nice today but Sunday cold and rain again. Come Summer heat I would be wishing for "fake Spring".

I didn’t, but the south side got hit pretty hard. We just had some lovely rain.

That's good, cause we saw some pics of a hail stone coming thru the roof.  We just missed it also.

I'd say we were living right, but  probably no one would buy that!!

Hi guys. Sorry I haven’t been on much since the retreat. Life has been busy. We have decided that we want to move to Arizona in the next 1-4 years. What areas do you guys live in and where would you suggest looking?  We are coming down for a week from June 6-June 11th. We will be staying in an Air BNB in Estrella Mountain Ranch.  It is a graduation trip for my daughter who graduated last year and my stepson who graduates this month, but we may have a little time for checking out some areas (or catching lunch with some of you). We are thinking of trying to buy a home before we move down there, as a vacation home /vacation rental, but need some advice on areas for that as well. 
 

I hope all of you are doing well.

Wow!  Moving to AZ!  Would you still be working for AAA?  Depending on where you chose,  you'd certainly have some quilting buddies nearby!

Yes. I will transfer when the time comes. I won’t get to keep my renewal income though so we have to be prepared for an income hit before we make the move. 

Wow that will be a change for you. There are so many great places. Years ago we entertained the idea of moving there but ended up in New Mexico.

Yeah it will be a big change. My coworkers keep trying to change my mind, but we want to make the move by 2025 at the latest. When I turn 50.
