Goodbye Texas

As sad as it is, we are leaving Fort Worth, Texas tomorrow. We have absolutely loved being here. Ben's assignment for work is complete and so we must return to the real world. A world where there are more requirements, no maids, no free meals, no swimming pools, no Trinity Park, no Fort Worth skyline, no Half Price Books, no Fort Worth Botanical or Water Gardens. There will be no more me picking up my sweetheart at 4:00 and spending the rest of the day together. I will go back to working til 6:00 and we will pretend that a few hours a day is ok and wish for our trust fund to come in so we can forget work and bills and spend time doing what really matters. I won't get to spend my days working from the hotel with the best cat in the world, I will miss my friend as I work in an actual office back home in Utah. I have tried very hard this week not to be sad but to be grateful for the last 2.5 months, grateful to my sweet husband for bringing Pete and I with him to Texas. For the time we've had to enjoy and explore this beautiful place. So, here's to Fort Worth. To new friends Megan, Jeff and Kabella. Thank you girls, the adventures were unforgettable! To the many new books we acquired while here, to beautiful smog free skies, to snow days off work, to spending extra time with my wonderful family and most of all, here's to a bright tomorrow. Catch you on the flip side.
