to think about things I will miss here so I don't get swept up in wanting to leave so badly that it takes over my life... I think about being able to take the metro to DC whenever I have free time (not recently but...), seeing free museums, going to amazing veg head restaurants, having a plethora of places to choose from for anything I might want, our fave watering hole, etc. etc. etc. R and I even discussed going to the Kennedy Center for a show since neither of us has done that and we are hoping not to be here too much longer…

I keep thinking I will be able to make my own schedule and that is freaking divine. I keep thinking Kraymer and Tucker will have a yard to play in and that is fabulous! I keep thinking I can meet my mom and dad for lunch once a week or so just to keep in touch - YAY! I keep thinking I will be able to see my brother and sister in law and niece and nephews a lot more frequently so that they might actually know who I am.

I have to say it is true though, I am reaching my goal of being a dog trainer and here I am wanting wanting wanting to move away. Will I ever be satisfied? Makes me wonder. I am a lot happier lately though and people have noticed. I think it’s the excitement of things in the future being different and not feeling stagnant and stuck anymore… I love possibilities!

This compounds it all as well, my horoscope today:

Just when you think things are settled, life takes another turn. Today is the day for yet another of those turns, so hold on tight, Kristy. You will likely receive some information that will have a dramatic impact on your life. Perhaps you'll receive an opportunity to move to another state . . . or another country. Or perhaps your partner will finally pop the question. One thing is clear: your future is promising indeed!

I am hoping to hear that the land at the barn was subdivided! That is the key factor that is holding us back… Dare to dream…
