Zach and I have always been busy people. When things slow down, we usually try and find something to make ourselves more stressed out and keep us busy. For example, have more babies, change jobs, buy a house, sell our house, go back to school, etc.
Zach is done with his MBA now (he graduates on Saturday) and we are done having kids (I am still sad about it). We are really struggling with what is next for us. As most of you know, we sold our house back in March 2020 and have lived in an RV full-time since September of last year. We just had our fourth child in March and had to come back to our hometown (Austin,TX) to deliver him. We have been in the Austin area since January and we are so ready to leave.
I always imagined having the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood with the perfect family, but as most of you know, that doesn’t really exist. Perfect is not reality. Maybe some people are satisfied with the white picket fence life, but what surprised me the most was that life was not what I wanted. I was constantly sad about the little time I spent with my family and how I wanted to travel.
When we headed back to Austin in January after our first east coast tour, I was so excited to be near our family again. But, after a couple of months we were ready to go! I have struggled emotionally with the next steps we should take. What path is right for us? What will satisfy this hunger in us for adventure?
In Austin, housing prices are OUT-OF-CONTROL. This makes me second guess our decision of selling our home and not buying another one. Did we make the right choice? Maybe we could find a new city or state in our west coast journey that would be our new home. Who knows? I need to work on being content with where we are, look forward to the trips ahead of us and let future decisions be just that, future decisions. Do you struggle with where you are? Are you unsure about what your future holds?
Have any questions for us? We would love to hear from you!
