I had to get out of the house for a bit today. A friend of mine is staying with me temporarily and, frankly, it's driving me nuts. So I escaped and went down to visit my equine friends. Hoping to have my place back to myself within the next couple of weeks. My trip next weekend to Illinois to work for a week is looking like a good escape hatch and then I'll be headed to the East Texas shortly thereafter to look for a places to live. I've been scoping out housing there as well as the beach. Can't wait to see what there is to offer and I'll be moving alone. I like flying solo.
