So. Um. We’re still celebrating at
our house. But it’s a different kind of celebrating than I did when all this happened. More like a holy-crap-what-did-we-get-ourselves-into? kind of
celebrating. And a pack-your-entire-life-and-family-in-a-truck kind of
celebrating.
Because people, the Giles family…
Is MOVING TO TEXAS!!!
That’s right, y'all. Portland, Texas, to be specific, which is
right outside Corpus Christi. Best part?
This.
We expect to be there just before
Thanksgiving. Which means I will not be writing a novel this November, but I
will totally be cheering on all my NaNoWriMo friends. So I’m dusting off my
cowboy boots, donning my hat, and uncovering my long buried y'all drawl. Or,
er, um. Okay, maybe I’m really just packing, but still. I’m SO. Excited.
Except the part where I have to
leave behind people I love. That is not excitement. There will be many tears on
moving day. (And hugs to all of you!)Remember how I told you all to do something big? Well. Yeah. This is kind of big, I think. Now it’s your turn,
because after this, I’m going to need a long, long nap.
Now tell me. What new and exciting
thing are you going to try this month?

WOW NIchole!! Good luck with the move. I hope it is easy and successful and NOT stressful :-)
Congratulations, Nichole! I'm truly so happy for you and jealous of the beach. But I'll come visit some day and then you can share your slice of paradise with me. Hooray for new adventures!
Oh my gosh! This is HUGE! I'm so happy for you, though! You sound so excited!
