Series 15: Her Testament Series of a Paranormal Life -The Realtor’s Wife

Making lasting friends was never easy for me, moving from town to town didn’t help matters much. We were always losing touch, watching friends come and go.

Living in Mesa had been home in many ways but having made a few close friends was the most exciting thing that had happened to me. I wanted more.

When my father left the Army, he took a job with a Company called, Motorola Electronics. In many ways I felt like we were still in the Army, as we moved to two towns for his new position, but after 2 short years in Mesa we were moving, again.

This time we were being transferred to Austin Texas. Settling on a home in a nice new community, Cedar Park, just outside of Austin, for the first time in my short life my parents bought their first home! Even though, all I knew about Texas was there were a lot of cows and cowboys.

I think I was more excited about it than any of my sisters. I saw it as planting roots. A promise to wake up in the same place, day after day. My mind swirled in possibilities, we could plant a garden, just like my grandparents and buy some chickens and rabbits. We would fill the whole acre lot with life and maybe, just maybe, I could make some lasting friendships.
