Good Morning.

Ok... let's see if I have time here to give my FRiends on the UT an update.

As y'all know, we moved from Texas back to MN. We are currently living with her parents on a large-ish hobby farm. No real conflicts there, although some tensions exist.

The tech job market up here is only a fraction of the market in Austin, so finding work has been kinda iffy. I'm on a temporary contract now waiting for a much better opportunity to start on Nov 1st. The current job sucks, but the next one not only pays VERY well, but puts me back on a good career path to boot.

Zon had some surgery a couple weeks back. Had her gallbladder removed. No complications, but she was sore for a couple of weeks. Still kind of tender around the bellybutton even now.

Inlaws have asked us to stay on through the winter as they plan on snowbirding for most of February and March. We have already started looking for a new house for ourselves as my current commute is about an hour (in good weather) and it'll be another 15 minutes on top of that for the new job.

Other than that, the kids are growing like weeds. Everyone has stayed fairly healthy. Only had one cold so far that made the rounds. The weather, up until the last week or so, has been gorgeous. I've dropped about 20lbs without even trying to.

Life progresses...

Not sure how much I'll be around still. Not even sure what my total free time at my next job will be. I'll keep everyone posted when I can...
