bittersweet

Exactly a week from today we will be pulling out of our driveway, all worldly-things packed carefully into a U-haul, starting the next part of our journey. For so long it seemed so far away, now.. it's right around the corner. Although I am usually the first to bitch about West Texas... I'll miss it.

I'll miss the sky, and the cool summer nights, and the way you can see a storm coming from miles away.

I'll miss the awesome mexican food and julio's salsa, and even driving out to the "strip".

I'll miss the closeness to the desert and canyons, and New Mexico in general.

I'll miss our friends...

...but probably most of all I will miss my brother and sister, and living within miles from both of them.
