Today is the day

We bought the family their plane tickets to Vermont today. That kind of made our nerves all a jitter... A bit of the "What are we doing?". Yeah, for both of us. Aside from my issues of leaving the only place I've ever lived (and that my parents have ever lived, for that matter) there are also the other aspects. We both really enjoy our jobs situations and our employer and the security that comes with that. Plus, while we don't have many friends (especially that we see with much frequency) we do quite value the ones that we do have. Due to the suddenness of this decision, we will be missing some exciting changes for some of them that we have been looking forward to. That will be tough and I think we'll be feeling that today, as now is when the work really starts to come to terms with this move. Of course, Caitlin is at work today so that will give her things to ponder, but E and I have the day off so I feel like we will really, really need to fill some of the time with a social call...

Though I am still feeling a bit reluctant to spread the news to my fellows.

Wow. Just wow! You'll make it. You'll all be just great. I am going to keep my ear to the ground for jobs. Who knows...something might just happen along.

Thanks! I do feel somewhat (well, a lot) traumatized about the job thing. Going from such nice jobs with endless security to a couple of "fill-in-the-blanks" jobs is a bit much to think about.
