I'm on to better things
 
Well, family....I am moving starting today...Yay!

I will see you guys in a week or so, maybe sooner if I catch a moment...I am packing today..

Many of you know this is a healthy move for me because it is soley based on what is good for me, my husband and son and not any other person, especially toxic relatives.

I am moving from the south to the north...pretty significant...kinda like the first time I moved from the south out west...

Anyhoooo....Your prayers and support would be greatly appreciated.

See you soon I hope...

Love,

Growing

Hey Growing --

Good luck with the move. Prayers and hope coming your way as you travel northward. I'll look forward to hearing from you again once you're settled!

Support from me on the physical, tactical and most importantly, emotional, aspects of your move!

Hey Growing! Good for you. You have a new place! I did the opposite move, from NY to SC!! But, the north is beautiful and I hope you love it!

YOU guys are the absolute.....BEST!!!!!!!!!!

I am realizing how much I need you guys (fellow acoa's). Your support is important to me.

My family and the people I talk to...they have noticed how I have changed since joining SR, to the point, where, THEY have mentioned it to me.

I've been packing like a madwoman all day! The story is, we will finish packing tommorow, and then drive to the new location Monday....We will see...LOL

I forgot to tell you guys that, I will be going back to work, myself. Hubby got the position that was the impetus for the move..but I am going back to work myself, also. That will be a huge change for me...I have been a stay-at-home-mom since 2001....worked since I was 15yrs old, before that. A challenge...yes...but I hope to really express myself in my choice of job, this time, instead of, the-usual-part-time-crap-jobs I accepted in the past...I would actually really love to work at a bookstore...don't know what the pay is...but I am hopeful for my job hunting process...may as well have a postive attitude about it!

Can't wait for the new meetings...I know it will be a serious challenge...trying out meetings, carefully considering, over time, who to be my sponsor...asking person to be my sponsor who "has the recovery I want", the step work ect..but I am looking forward to it. A new chapter in life, as they say.

Well, back to packing....ugh..

Thanks family!
