Ok so to all of you on the blogosphere... its been a while. sorry... Life has given us some abrupt speed bumps that have somewhat caused us to re-evaluate our positions. In the last 2 months Lew has lost his job (due to some rather absurd policy), we have finally moved into our new place (though no furniture yet) and despite the title of our blog we have obtained a new family member who is the exact opposite of the blogs moniker ( a baby black kitten named Jasper). So where does that leave us? Absurdly in debt, making significantly less money than before but... with several silver linings! no... really...
You see when we made the decision to move to Texas we did so based on Lews love of transportation, he wanted to finally pursue his dream of working with cars and motorcycles and building custom cars and hot rods (and maybe scooters). He is now working at an autobody shop a short 5 minute walk from the house, starting at the bottom but learning and loving what he does. It also puts us in a position that we are not locked into 20-30 years of him working for the state of Texas which means that after a couple years of experience we can indeed fulfill our dream of moving back to western Washington state.
It's interesting how life is evaluated by society and how so many of us wait for life to start without realizing that we are in fact living it.. now... each day. So even though life has thrown us some curves we now pledge more than ever to live our life the way that WE want to. Untethered by others expectations and only seeing our dreams and the path that is laid out before us to achieve those dreams.
We will be posting now more than ever to the blog, again with hopes that perhaps we can inspire even just one other person to live the life that they dream. So until tomorrow, goodnight all
