Positive Thinking

So, for those of you who know me, I grew up in a pretty small town/area.  So when my we found out that we were moving to the Vegas area last year for John's new job, I was both excited and a little nervous.  Sin City is a fun place to visit ( in my opinion, John just hates it all around ) but I was a little nervous about living here.  We couldn't be too picky about where we went either, with the economy the way it is/was ya gotta go where the job is.  So we decided it would be a good chance for us to be away from family and start our own thing.  I was pretty excited.  And it has been great, except since we've been here. . . I have come to dislike, HATE Vegas!!!  Luckily we live in a little town about 30 minutes south east of Vegas, but we still find ourselves having to drive into town for some shopping, doctors appts., dentist appts., etc.  I loathe having to go into town ( unless it is to go on a "fun shopping day" at all of the shopping outlets )  Vegas drivers are not too friendly and I'm always praying that I make it home alive.  In my attempt to be a positive person, I have tried to come up with a list of things that I really do like about living in this area.  It's a short list, but a list nonetheless.
1. I LOVE THE WEATHER!!!  For the first year of my life, I wasn't snowed in on my birthday, but was actually out in the sunshine and LOVING every minute of it!!!!  I like the snow, but after about a month, I just want it gone, so the desert weather has been nice ( excluding the 120 degree weather that we had this summer for a couple weeks, KILL ME!!!!! )
2.  Like I mentioned before, the shopping down here is awesome!  They have almost any story you can think of and you can usually find some good deals if you are a good bargain shopper ( which I am )
3.  The Vaught's and The Dearden's.  Our bestest pals down here in Vegas have made it a lot of fun!  They both have little boys who aren't too much older than Cora, so she has friends that she can play with.  And we get to chill/hangout with them and just have a grand old time!  I will miss them THE MOST when we move :(
4.  The only other thing I like about Vegas is that we will be leaving it before it gets bloomin hot again :) hee hee!
We are moving to a more nothern town that won't be so dang hot and is A LOT smaller!  I will definitely miss the convenience of all of the shopping, but am excited to start a new adventure with my two sweetheart's!!!  I'll talk a little bit more about where we are moving in the future.  For now I just wanna vent to you all about this ................... place!!!

NO THANKS :)
