Tomorrow I will pick up a U-Haul truck, complete with a
towing dolly for my 1992 Ford Thunderbird.
On August 22, the truck gets loaded, and I drive to Nacogdoches,Texas. I move in to the first place I
can call “mine” on Tuesday, August 23.
That day will mark the end of a nearly 11-month period of homelessness
that was precipitated by a nasty car accident.
On September 1, 2016 I will commence as the Assistant
Director of Assessment at Stephen F. Austin State University. This is a strong school in a beautiful and undiscovered part of Texas--the Piney Woods. I’ve always loved this institution, and I am
excited to reboot my life and rebuild it into something that rewards those who
supported me and believed in me…even when it wasn’t easy.
I’ve done this before.
I’ve never been so alone when I have done this.
Stay tuned.
