Jess and I are house-sitting for my parents in Keller while they go on a short vacation to New Mexico. They should be back Sunday night.
It’s very odd to live in this house again. My bed isn’t here anymore, so we’re sleeping in my parents bed (with clean sheets, thank you very much). Everything here is very familiar, and yet very different at the same time.
At one point, Keller was in the country. There was nothing here. Nothing at all. One grocery store, one movie rental place (and it wasn’t even a BlockBuster). This place has grown up a lot. Regardless of that, it’s still more country than anywhere I’ve lived in the past 8 years. The nights are darker, and quieter. Yet, in that quiet and darkness, there is so much light… so much noise. It’s beautiful.
My drive to work, however, has gone from 2 minutes, to about 45. So I’d better get in the shower and get the day started.
