Change is in the air.


With fall coming change seems to be in the air.  Working for a commercial cargo airline I am used to change in my life.  Currently we are looking for a new place to live in Rock Hill, SC our oldest will be attending college at Winthrop.  It sure adds a unique stress in trying to find a place that meets everyone’s needs.    Between having pets, trying to be within walking distance of the college and being close to a good middle school we sure have a tall order for a house to rent J   In the past when we have moved it has always been because of my job changing.  With my current job it is nice that we have the option of living almost anywhere we want.  That sure makes it nice for our family at the current time.
 Brenna and I looked at several houses yesterday and think we finally have a handle on 2 houses that would fit our families need. Here is our favorite one.

Change is also in the air for my job as well.  For the last year I have been traveling and working at the McGuire AFB.  I really enjoy the areas and it really has become my home away from home.  I stay in New Hope, PA and is such a great town.  I have met some great friends there and have made it my  2nd Home for sure.  I am so looking forward to getting back there.  It looks like for the next couple of months I may not be spending as much time in my 2nd home though.  I will be helping cover JFK base and working on getting my airport badge for Anchorage, AK and Chicago, IL as well.    I do have fond memories of the Anchorage airport, and when we lived there we really did enjoy the area!  When we lived there I really did work way too much, I always had 2 or 3 jobs at once.  Because of this I was not home much and we didn’t get to enjoy the area as much as we should have though L.      I am hoping that I can get back to my routine of staying 18 days a month at my 2nd home though.  I really like having a constant in my life, so now having the job changing and home house changing it does add a bit of stress in life for sure.
I know that in the past change has always been good for myself and our family so I am really looking forward to what the new changes will bring.

Second Home

Well I am back to my usual traveling schedule.   I have really enjoyed being able to be work from home for the last two months.  I was able to spend so much quality time with my spouse Tina and the girls, and we had a great time together.  Being home so long does make it hard for me to leave them, but as I am traveling it gives me something to look forward to as well.
I did have an interesting experience the other night.  When I travel up to cover do coverage at the McGuire AFB  like always like to stay at this nice B&B.   I got in pretty late and carried some of my luggage to the room, and laid down of the bed and it just felt like my 2nd home.  I do stay a lot here and usually in the same room, but it still surprised me though.  I love the staff and they feel like a extended family to me.
