It's starting

I'm starting to sink a little. The snow hasn't really stopped. There is so much on the ground right now. Spokane got a record amount in two days, it stopped for a short moment and now is coming back. The forecast doesn't look great. I need some sunshine and for it to warm up a little. I have applied for a ton of work, had one interview and still nothing. I feel like I need to cry but I won't let myself, I chose to move up here.

Christmas is a few days away and this will be the first one of my life that I am not with my family. It hurts a little. I think I'll go back to reading, that seems to be a safe place for me right now.

Been here 8 days!

We have been in the new house in Spokane for 8 days now. I am starting to get more familiar with the town, I'm in love with the new house and a little apprehensive of the weather. The kitties are in love with all the room we have and the stairs down to the basement.

This move has been so amazing for me. It gives me a chance to build a life with my fishstick. I will forever love and miss my family, but I needed this. I needed to know that I am a person, and that I can and will do amazing things on my own (so to speak). We have family here that have been so wonderful in welcoming us to the Northwest!

I never realized how much focus I put on taking care of people and work. I defined myself by it, I made it everything in my world. And yes those are wonderful things to spend time doing, there is so much more to this life. I have nothing but life to live, I'm a newlywed with an amazing man, a beautiful house, and nothing but opportunity around every corner in my new world!

I love California, and will forever be a California girl, but I am so excited and happy to be where I am right now!

YAY!!!!
