Moving On

It has been a couple of days (or more) since I last posted so I thought I had better get to it before I get in trouble with my daughter again. Actually I do have a few new things to talk about.

Last night the support group started again so now I am in Level One. Three of my friends from Newlys moved on as well so we thought we were all going to be together again. Well the three of them are but I am in a different group. They said they wouldn't be in the same group either except there was not enough people this session for more then two groups. I am okay with it but you would think they could have least gave me one familiar face. We still went out for coffee after group and I know we will continue to do things together. This past Sunday 5 of us went bowling and then out for dinner. We had a good time and I didn't even bowl too bad.

Getting back to group, there are only four of us and 2 facilitators much smaller then the first group. This time if somebody is missing it is really going to make a difference. It is kind of uncomfortable having to tell your story all over again. We were all so comfortable with each other. Hopefully I will get to that point again with the new group. My original group was made up of people who all had been in long marriages with older children, this time it is just the opposite. Hopefully I will continue to grow from this and get one step closer to feeling well again.

I also have some exciting news, at least I think it is exciting. I am moving! I found a townhouse/condo that I can lease with the option to buy and it will be brand new! It is in the northwest part of town, pretty quiet. I will have an attached garage, 3 bedrooms, a little outdoor living space, backyard and I can plant flowers! I am so excited about that. I get a little yard but I do not have to mow or shovel snow! I am so excited to see who my neighbors will be. My townhouse will be ready by the end of this month but I had to give 60 days notice here. I talked to Cheryl the manager and she said my place will be the only open townhouse so if they can rent it by the end of the month I can leave then. So keep your fingers crossed. The bad thing is that they will also be showing my place so no leaving messes when I go to work! I have put the dog on hold for now but I can have one there, I just have to pay a pet deposit but my monthly lease payment would not be any higher. Maybe after I get settled in and save the deposit I will start looking again.

Well morning will be here before I know it so better get some sleep. I have a lot to do in the next few weeks.
