Yeah, it's just my thoughts now are of saying good-bye to people. I'm actually saying good-bye to two places, Philadelphia and Anaheim. I just think of 6 months ago and how different it was back then. This was not the plan 6 months ago. California was my only option. I was gonna go there to be with the one I loved and live happily ever after. Funny, how things change so quickly.

It didn't turn out quite the way you thought it would. (Things seldom do.) But maybe this is the way it was really meant to be. A whole new beginning in a place you already love. Good-byes are never easy. . .but a new door is opening. Be excited!

Vince, I just want to say I admire your courage. You knew you wanted a change and you made that change. And you've chosen a location that will make you, I believe, very happy. So have confidence in your choice - it will be a rewarding one! :)

It's kinda funny now that I look all the way back and see how this all happened.

In 2000, my family's best friends left Philadelphia to move to Orlando. In 2001, we decided to go on our first ever real vacation to visit them. It was on that trip that I was first introduced to Disney and it's changed my life ever since. Coming home, I was filled with all these dreams and feelings I never had before. I began to see the world differently. It was enough to change my career path. I ended up switching majors and going to grad school in an effort to find what I really wanted. Then I got stuck in what was a dead-end job, but I was afraid to do anything about it. Then I met her and getting to know and love her drove me to act. I let go of my fears and sought to chase my true dreams. Unfortunately, things didn't go the way I wanted but I still wanted to go. That opened the door to Orlando. And now I'm heading there. Now there's also talk of my family moving down there when they retire in a couple years. My aunt and uncle were also thinking of moving down to Orlando too, but were held back by wanting to be close to family. Well, if all this happens, they might get their wish. Gosh, it's kinda amazing when you think about it.

Off to a graduation party. I'm not sure how much I'll be on in the next few days. Tomorrow is Father's day, and I'm not really sure what we're doing for that, then my mom arrives Monday for DS' graduation Tuesday. She'll be leaving Wednesday, then Thursday we're tackling DS' bedroom - no small task! I'll be in and out a lot.

It really is amazing Vince, and it's going to be a wonderful opportunity for you. I know it's scarey - I moved across the country when I was 28 - but you have a great job to go to and a whole new life ahead of you. be happy - we're all happy for you!

You've set off a chain reaction!
And a very positive one, too. You've started family members thinking in a direction that might not otherwise have occurred to them.
Funny how nothing we do affects only us. . .

Talk to you when you can get here, Fishy!
Have a great weekend! :kiss:

Tell him the Imoms said to keep it propped up!

I did tell him. You don't want to know the anwser I got.

That might be normal, but I'd check with the doctor.

I plan on it but I want to wait a little longer. right now he has it propped up. :sohappy:

Yes, do.
In special circumstances our authority extends beyond the thread and on to ornery husbands.

He laughed at this one and said "Well now I'm ornery! :eek: "

Remind me of that next time Dave leaves the seat up!

Have fun in the next few days and good luck with mom and DS's room.

Hey everyone. I had some stuff quoted, but my computer is being stupid and won't let me get to them. Anyway. I had breakfast at CM today, and it was soooooo much fun. I would definitely eat there again. I do have to go work now, so have a good evening.
