A whole new world


I don't know if that is an accurate way to describe Oklahoma, but it is very different. In the many months before we moved I hoped for a job where I would feel happy, make a difference, and be appreciated. My new job is all of this and so much more. In talking to many of my friends in Montana I hear that so little has changed. I am hoping that this year finds everyone happy and settled, but I realize that the reality is it could be utter chaos.

Do I miss my family in Montana, every day. Especially when my kids talk about Nana and Papa. Do I miss the weather, no way. I have to say the climate agrees with us. The kids love to play outside in the sprinkler, I'll get back to you around Tornado season and let you know if the weather is still agreeable. We are looking forward to the state fair, which we hear is a sight to behold.

In the light of the future I like being in the bible belt and close to Texas because our government appears to be taking our rights and freedoms away. As I watch the news and see town hall meetings aired. I also notice that the media is leaving out so much. I am finding myself shocked when I hear what is truly in the healthcare plan. I look at history and the parallels are becoming more and more obvious. This country was founded by Christians and we are falling apart at the hands of liberals.
