I can't believe..
...How much I love Tucson.
I've been here for about six months now and I can't believe how I've fallen in love with this place.
Some of my favorite Tucson things:
- Watching Thunderstorms from my balcony
- Driving up Mt. Lemon
- The Sunny mornings
- The howling coyotes at night
- The clean air and starry skies
- Driving a min. 55 mph on the I-10 at any time of day (beats commuting in OC any day)
- The cheap rent I pay for a huge place with amazing views of the Catalinas
- The sunsets
- The rainbows that seem to grow in my backyard
- The near-by airport
- The snowy catalinas in the winter
- The left hand turn signals
- the friends I've made here
This place is such a well-kept secret. I love it.

I think it's great that your enjoying your new home in Tucson. It's all about being happy and comfortable, life goes by so fast so why not live in a place you truly love. I hope you enjoy Tucson for years to come.

Us women are good at forgetting hair cut costs every once in a while. However we seem to remember every race you've gone to, every game you watch on Sundays and how many times you haven't taken out the trash in the past month.  We're good like that.

Hmm..if it were a fabulous cut would my coworker have responded to it by handing me the card of her stylist and asking me if I really wanted it to be "that light"?
And yes, when they told me my total was 200...I actually responded..."dollars?"
The hair cut goes on the list right after my broken winshield, the suicidal birds that run in front of my car only to give me a heart attack and my neighbor that let her rat of a dog poop on my patio.
There's no place like my new home. ; )

Right there with ya, New2Oro. Been back for 2 and a half months my own self, and it's great.
It's really nice to be able to say that in our absolute worst time of the year, weather-wise. We're lucky.

Hehehehe... The birds are definitely nuts! I hit two birds two days in a row last month.  I was starting to wonder if my car makes a weird noise that drives them to suicide.
Anyway, I'm glad you're digging it here. We just hit our year anniversary of arriving in town on July 28th. I'm still loving it too.
