All Moved In

Well, yesterday was the big moving day! I packed up my car, and left my house in Miami at 7 AM! I got at my Aunt/Uncle's house in St. Augustine at 12 Noon, and enlisted my 2 cousins to help the removal of my life from the car. We got everything up the stairs into what will be my bedroom.

After. we drove to the office, which is in Jacksonville. I got to start my list of To Do's for the week, and for the next few days. It is an easy drive into the office, which I got to try today.


Oh, speaking of driving, my grandmother got me a shiny new GPS for my car and for getting around the new surroundings. I have named her Eileen. There are a few reasons I choose this name too! For two and a half years, I worked at the Go Kart Track down in Homestead, where there was a co-worker who was extremely annoying and had a loud loud loud voice! Well, if you have heard the GPS voices, they are loud and annoying! The other reason, is that when she decides to slow down a little, which she does sometimes, I can just tell her "Come On Eileen."


Anyways, I will be keeping this blog updated from the Northern parts of Florida. So keep an eye out for more adventures!

The BIG Announcement

That's right everybody, I have a fairly huge announcement. It's one that I haven't told very many people yet, in fact right now, before this blog post, only my parents, grandmother, and 5 other people know. But it is something that I have thought about for a while.

I have talked on here, albeit briefly, about the discouraging job it is to find a job, especially in Miami. Well, I found a job...and...it's not in Miami! That's right, my BIG announcement, is that I am moving.

Well, where are you moving to Matt?

That is a good question, I am moving on up, to the east side...wait that's The Jeffersons, even though I am moving up to the East Coast of Florida, in St. Augustine. I am going to live with my Aunt/Uncle and cousins until I can save up some money for rent and find my own place. I will be starting out as an Office Manager, for their company, and once we have a large enough staff, I will begin to work as the Sales Manager.

Yes, it is a risk, but with risk can come reward. So it's a risk I am willing to try! For everyone that is here in Miami, you will be missed, but I will be talking to all of you on the phone! I do have a 20 minute drive to and from work every day! And, of course I will be down now and again for special events and to visit.

Of course, I will continue to blog no matter where I am!
