Moving is a lot of Work

I don't know if we will ever stay in one place for very long. At least that's what it feels like some times. We had to say goodbye to South Carolina because Chris' office was shut down. Fortunately, he was offered a job by a co-worker who left D3 and is now the hiring manager at a company in Indiana. That's right, Indiana. Never did I ever think I would be moving to Indiana. 
I remember when we first moved to SC and people would ask us if we were here to stay, we kind of hesitated saying yes. Mainly because it was our 3rd move in 2 years. Even though there wasn't anything in the foreseeable future that would make us move, I never felt we would stay in SC for very long. It took moving away to completely realize how great Simpsonville/Greenville, SC really was. Downtown was charming. It wasn't a huge city and therefore lacked the horrific traffic. Plenty to do and not far from major cities that offered bigger venues for sports, concerts, and such. Absolutely beautiful! Chris would disagree because he was allergic to SC, but I think it had the perfect weather. I'm used to the humidity, so while it was cumbersome at times, not a huge negative for me. Fall colors were amazing to witness each year. Snow was possible but not expected, at least more than one snowfall a year and it was there and gone before it became annoying. The city shut down completely at the idea of snow, ice, or really cold temperatures. Which is funny but also refreshing. Loved it!! 
I miss it. I miss the friends we made while living there. I miss our house. I miss our gym. But I know we will be settled again some day. Here's to another adventure in the books!
