Ch - Ch -Ch - Changes

Funny how life is. You work for 17 years for one company, in a completely safe environment and then life throws you a curve ball. I had a great thing going at the University. I had a stable job and enjoyed the work environment. I don't think you could have cinched those golden handcuffs any tighter. 

Now, 3.5 months later, I have a new position at a new company. Life is busier than ever, and life decides to throw us another curve ball, Costa Rican style.

We will be heading to Costa Rica this Saturday to find a place to live for the next 9-10 months. Angie has always been the big talker about moving for an experience. Well, now she gets her wish. 

We signed up for the Cottonwood marathon at the beginning of the summer and Saturday is the culmination of that training. Not long after, our lives will change as we catch the red eye (that will be interesting) to make it to church on Sunday morning in Costa Rica.

I am looking forward to this adventure. I think that it has great potential to make a positive impact in our family's lives. This has come with a lot of stress. Angie is struggling with the change and seems to be unhappy lately. There is so much change that it is very easy to understand the challenges it poses.

I plan on keeping the blog each week to document our adventure.

Until then...
