i've always liked the analogy of the passage of life as a book.
i'm thrilled to announce today that i'm on the cusp of a new chapter; but my news might actually warrant more than a chapter; perhaps it might be the beginning of a whole new section of the book
2 years ago i took a long hard look at might life, to evaluate where i had been and more importantly where i was headed. i was about 1/2 way through paying off my credit cards and starting to wonder what would come next. once i wasn't obligated to work at a job that paid me a decent amount of money, most of which went to paying bills
and i decided that if debt didn't have me chained down anymore, then why would i want to live 1000 miles away from my (at the time) 3 nieces?
so over the past 2 years, i have been working 2-3 jobs, giving every bit of excess money i could to my credit cards and as some of you may know, as of august 24th, all of those bills are completely paid off.
now, i am free to begin the next chapter / section / phase of my life
i'm ecstatic to tell you that today i gave 2 months notice to my bosses at my job and let them know that my last day of work would be november 8th.
my plan is to move to bowling green, KY the week of Thanksgiving.
!!!!!!!!
i will be moving into the basement of my brother & sister-in-law's house and will become their part-time (or maybe full-time) live-in "nanny" of sorts to their 4 very precious girls
i will definitely miss all of my friends and family here in NY - over the past 6 weeks i have been even more blessed by all of your love & care for me during some pretty dark days
my dad was pretty excited at this prospect for me so i know he would be thrilled to know it is coming to fruition
more blog posts to follow as plans firm up and other decisions are made but here is what i know as of today
pretty epic news right?????
PS- i've been waiting MONTHS to write this blog!!!!
