Where is Home?

So, tonight I moved my stuff to Georgia. BIG sigh here! I am excited, however, everything is bittersweet! As I was packing up my clothes and things, I came across so many memories, and I couldn't help but cry. I have been wanting to move out of the little town of Weaver Alabama for quite sometime now, but now that it is here...there are so many things buzzing in my head.

I had a talk with my Mamma this afternoon. I realized that she and my dad weren't going to be an easy 10 minutes away any longer. I was so ashamed that I hadn't visited them more being so close. I guess you just take for granted the time you have. I will miss being able to jump in my car and head over there when I felt the urge...now it will be a planned trip. Another big sigh.

I guess I am just spinning because everything has happened so fast! On Friday, I had an interview, and I start the job on Monday. I haven't really had any time to process my feelings about this...but as I told a good friend...I am a big girl. I am pulling myself up by my bootstrings and marching on. Its all I know to do at this point.

On a happier note...I did get to my very generous sister's house and finally got settled in. She has gone way out of her way to make me comfortable here, and I am so grateful for that. Pete seems to have adjusted well too. (for those of you who don't know...pete is my 12 year old mini-daushaund).

I know all of this is going to be a big adjustment. Starting a new job, living in a new place with people again, being in a new and unfamiliar city. But its fresh...it's new. It's what I wanted. It's time to make some new kick ass memories and make the best of what is to come. Again, here's to the journey, and seeing what is around the next bend!
