well, as most know I’ve been up to my eyeballs in packing, sorting, and stuff for the last couple days…something I really didn’t do much of with my ‘cross-town’ move back in Dec.
This time everything has to fit in my van :scared so needless to say there is a lot that is being tossed…but in all of this I have managed to find a lot of things that I’d forgotten I even had, (and a few that should have remained hidden) :hum and in the process have been taking a few to many walks down memory lane :walk_sad
I’m feeling so conflicted right now, I’ve been waiting for this day for so long, it hasn’t turned out the way I thought and hoped it would, but only a temporary setback…everything happens for a reason and things always turn out like they’re supposed to in the end.
It’s also unexpected how you find out at times like this who your friends really are, who will stick by you in the long haul and who will bail at the first sign of trouble…fortunately I have the most wonderful friends in the world (as I hope they ALL know!) so not to much of that going on :smile
and the last treasure I found today, would be seeing someone where you didn’t expect to, and hearing those three little words
“call me later”
geezz…:wtf did you expect them to be?? :rofl
Good luck, sweetie.
Go slow.
Be gentle with yourself.
good luck chica…I’m just excited you’ll be in the same time zone as me…;)
Teresa, as you well know I was once in your shoes and I packed up and moved across the country, leaving my kids with their dad. I was lucky and it was only for 3 months but I found out so many things about myself. My self esteem had been so low that I really believed my kids were better off with their dad and I learned that I AM a good mother, and that my kids DO want me and need me. I know that those arent feelings you’ve had but that you’re deealing with your own feelings right now. Please know that if you need someone to talk to, you can email me and I’ll give you a call or whatever. I know that our feelings aren’t exactly the same but I’ve certainly been where you are and if I can help any, I’d love to. Hugs to ya..we’ll be thinking about ya!
Memory lane does no one any good unless you intend on revisiting those options and even then a break up is a break up ia a break up regardless the reasons………you’ll be fine sweetie, you are strong, you are loved and if you only allowed your friends to extend the amount of love towards you on a regular basis that you do towards other’s you’d understand. Trust is hard with anyone, but sometimes you just need to take that leap of faith…..regardless go into your new life knowing no matter what you are LOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
