A day in Midland

I had a few free minutes so I thought I'd post an update.  As of the last entry we were waiting to hear if Todd got his internship.  He did!  We're living in Midland right now as a matter of fact.  He started a few weeks ago and is loving it.  The people here are incredibly nice and the company he's working for seems great.  We're just having trouble finding things to do when he's not working.  It's really hot here in Midland and it's not a large town so it seems like we have to drive a couple of hours to find family entertainment.
We still had a lease to fulfill in NM so we left most of our belongings there and just moved the minimum needed.  I'm able to use internet at the clubhouse and we didn't hook up cable.  I had this crazy idea that it would be fun in a kind-of romantic way to go without as much as possible, kind-of like a very long vacation.  Unfortunately it just feels like living inconviently.
Overall though it's been nice to have Todd around more and to be able to play house mommy for the summer.  We can't wait for the next year to go by so we can get back to living like adults- not students.
