Howdy to one and all. Thanks for all the well wishes..
Sitting here in my new place and drinking some morning coffee and waiting for ITIS to get back from his second trip of getting all our stuff from our old place. I would love to call a friend to go have breakfast or coffee with this morning but don't know anyone here yet so I figured I'd chat back at you guys this morning...
Lazyslob - thanks! love your name still. cracks me up everytime. "here I am - take me or leave me."
Bryan - thanks man! like I've told you before, your story is really inspiring to me. especially the way you've overcome things
.DiveJunkie -
Now you'll be in a place where no explanations are needed or expected - no judgements from those around you and no weird encounters with former friends
yes! yes! I love it. I was walking downtown yesterday and I was kind of feeling sad how alone I felt there, not knowing anyone. then it occured to me how clean the slate was, not knowing anyone. REBORN BABY! and I felt exhilirated at that.
Dave - I haven't ever told you, but I really enjoy your posts and thoughts. you seem like a pretty cool dude in my book. by the way, my kids love your avatar pic!
honesty - THANKS!! your pic always makes me want to dance a little jig.....ha ha ha
atypical - thanks for the thoughts!
tetra - thanks. I knew you'd appreciate that....and maybe even get it.
spaznik - glad I warmed your heart!
full of doubt - yes, yes. enjoying my freedom immensely. I loved your story.
vitty - thanks for the pat on the back. I am hoping this move will lessen the scarring somewhat.....
luna2- yes, wouldn't it be great for my hubby and all of us to get some family out of this!?
AKJeff- the physical move really needed to be done for me to completely be able to get on with my life. you have a wonderful way with words. really enjoy your posts.
Sunnygal- dancing around the room with you - sun shiny day!!
Bumble Bee- yes, yes, he'll be moving in with us soon. cool for him and us huh?!
CYP- HEY MAN! how you been? been trying to keep up with your happenings....you're a busy guy! keep it up. you're handling stuff perfectly. smart man you are! lucky lady your wife is!
Listener - glad we've been helpful to you!
Legolas - thanks Legolas! got to say....Orlando was hot in that long blond wig in Lord of the Rings. He should wear that thing all the time............MMMEEEOOOWWW!! grrrrrrr!
Goldminer - thanks for the thoughts. (good energy vibes going your way for your wife.)....maybe one day my friend.
carla - thanks! I do hope you get what your after regarding your hubby......
wanderlust - come on out for a visit and look for some property!! it's going fast around here! we'd be your first satellite customers over here.....hope your having a good day today. you'be had quite a few rough weeks....((((((((wanderlust))))))))))
XBEHERE - hey man! been wondering how you were????????????
GGG - was thinking of you this week also. if it works out, yes, yes, let's get together.....send me a PM!
bebu - yes, moving is stressful, but this move hasn't stressed me out that bad. funny, that kind of stuff used to put me in a tail spin. a lot of things seem to roll off my back now a days. life is way too serious, and needs to be enjoyed and savored IMO. glad you liked my poem....
DAMS - come for a visit so we can "skip and slip" together.... ha ha ha..........still cracking me up!
Happydad - thanks so much!! we're settling in very well. how are you doing???
cellist - thanks for your well wishes......would love to hear your music. have any online somewhere??
You guys are all great. really you are.
funny how I keep comparing this move to other moves I've made in my life. I would move before, because I knew I could rebuild my social structure at the KH. Now, I don't know anyone here, and I miss having a friend to call and hang with, but I don't miss the JW social structure at all. I look forward to all the new people I will meet. I get to hand pick friends now. not have a limited choice of who I welcome into my new life. and those people will be my friends for me. not because I'm "zealous" or "spiritually encouraging" to be with.
so, we'll keep you up to date on the happenings here. I'm getting ITIS to take me to get my new piercing done hopefully this week. maybe a pic will be in order???
if any of you want to PM me for our family's website to find out more, let me know. ITIS keeps it up to date.
LOVE YOU GUYS!! been fun chatting with you all this morning....
