Hubby told me he applied for a job right here and I am bummed a bit. I have mixed feelings. I think perhaps it would be all right to live here but then again, I've gotten geared up to move. This place has grown but it's also still pretty small town. I don't know. I want more opportunities available for my child, for me, for us as a family.
Pros about staying here: I know the area well. I have a lucrative partnership with the director/conductor of the university orchestra, working with him to garner financial support for the symphony orchestra. My mother-in-law is nearby. We wouldn't have to switch physicians or dentists or addresses. I have quite a few friends here. The private school G. will be going to is a very good one.
Cons about staying here: Same old, same old. Hot, hot summers. Intolerance of a small town, no Buddhist groups nearby, the coast has been obliterated by the hurricane and New Orleans will never be the same. Not many educational opportunities for my child or for me if I choose to go back to school. Hubby's kids who only call when they want something (except for my step-daughter with whom I have a nice relationship) are nearby. Lack of arts and culture.
So, I am feeling rather down. But, it's not all bad as I can see from my list. Whatever will be will be, right? Que sera, sera.
One good thing today- I saw S. and she said there is a very good possibility that one of my proposals will be approved. Called J. and left a message. HOORAY!
Oh, and I got two cool drawer sets from Target in which to store my Dollfie clothes, shoes, wigs, and other accessories. YAYYY! They are very unique. They're made in Indonesia and it looks like there is paper and material interwoven with thin silver threads. Very neat.
For now, here is dear sweet Norbu:
