new life

it has been 1 week and 4 days since i moved from the nyc to my new home down south
many wonder why i moved
well there were/are a myriad
but the most important was love
and not the i think i'm in love and i hope it all works out kind
the i'm going to be with you forever b/c you will be my permanent +1
it has been an adjustment
the hours the +1 works are sporadic and long
12hour shifts 2 and 3 day stints at a time
causing the days off to be filled with sleep, food and more sleep
i never knew that i would enjoy taking care of a home
but these past days made me realize that i could be a stay at home
at least until the children(no had yet) go to school

i had a career and loved it
now i see this as a new chapter in my life
a chapter that i want to record

i've had time to shop for cards and to send them off to loved ones
i have become, or should i say am trying to become more thoughtful and appreciative of the people around me, my family and friends that is

we shall see what the next days, weeks and months bring
i hope a greater sense of self and understanding of my world as it is
