Chilling in The 'Boro

It's been an interesting couple of days here in Murfreesboro. David's work is very exciting for him and new opportunities are opening up almost on a daily basis. He loves being a part of something so vital and in which the administration and even the governor give a lot of support. I'm still trying to get my bearings and recuperate from all of the chaos of the last couple of months. Hopefully the movers will get here Friday. The weather has been pretty cold but should be in the 50's and 60's later in the week, so having the front door open Friday won't be too uncomfortable.

There's a new shopping center on the north side of town that everyone here is very proud of. It's called The Avenue and is a large outdoor shopping venue much like you would see in Houston or the Metroplex. Considering that Mboro is only around 146,000 in population, it's pretty impressive. With the economy and the number of retailers that have gone under in the last couple of months there are still a lot of vacant storefronts though. I'm excited that they do have a World Market. There's a Kohl's within easy walking distance of our apartment, too. Sarah will feel right at home here!
