Default As I sit in the airport, listening to terry reid

I find myself a bag of mixed emotions.

I bought a obsecure song called "seed of memory" on itunes. Yes, yes its true I do rock that hard.

Perhaps its the people walking by. Maybe its the fact I had to pay 10 bucks for internet. Maybe its cause I just had one of the toughest phone calls in my life to my family back home. "Mom im still in North Carolina and don't expect me back".

Few times in my life have I ever bought a one way ticket. Infact I can only think of twice and they weren't due to a change in location. What do when you don't get the support you need? You stand up straight and act accordingly.

ahh..... lynard skynard is playing now

Today I wish for everyone to feel a little of what i've got going on. Gut check moments in life come hard, and they come fast. How could my family of ever known just how much getting GBS was going to change my life?

Thankgod they atleast love me and wish me well. Thats about all anyone can ask for I suppose. The rest is just smoke..


Lifes short people, act accordingly...

I'm sorry to hear you're facing some rough times. You've come soooo far, you've done so well. And you've inspired so many here.
Don't look back. Look forward to the good.

I wish you all the best.

-Julie.

You'll do great...I'm a transplant--and I eased right in! What you have ahead of you is so awesome that the past won't trouble you at all. Your family is still your family--no matter where they are. And I don't know about you, but when I moved to NY, it didn't change how often I talked to my parents, just how often I saw them, and how often I had to go to the house for some job--like opening the pool, sucking water out of the flooded basement, helping to clean out the garage. Living here will give you more free time. Plus, there's hockey.

Additionally, You + Me + Gina + Liz + Casino = A Fun Weekend (Coming soon to area nearer to you!)

Good luck buddy--it's worth it!

-Mike

I had just read that you two had gotten together around the time I joined the forums. You're right, I left my family and moved away with my husband. It was harder on them, than it was on me :P

I am very happy for the two of you!
