It has been almost a month since I moved up here to Fallon and so far it has been a really good choice. Since I moved here, I have felt such a weight lifted off of me because I was drowning in Southern California from worries about living situations, job situations, health issues, dating life and just other things in general. This move to Fallon was just what I needed to break that cycle of worries and give myself a chance to start over.
Sure I am living with my parents for right now, so it feels a little like I am a teenager again, but it has also been great to be able to spend more time with them so I do not mind it. I am trying to be as helpful around the house as I can to show my appreciation. I have also been able to go into Reno to see my brother and my nephew (he is almost 25...When the fuck did that happen?!?!). I have not been able to see my niece yet because she is doing training with her National Guard unit (she is going to come over for the 4th of July though). It has been so long since I have lived anywhere close to my family and I have missed a lot because of that. I hope that I will get to hear about some of those things and be able to be part of new memories as well.
Now I am working on meeting some new people to hang out with (just added a new FWB to my relationships) and hoping to get some good news about a job that I applied for here.
I do miss many of my friends back in California and cannot wait to be able to go visit them (or have them come visit me). We can at least keep in touch via the internet and phone (as soon as I get a new one).
All in all, this move has been one of the best choices I have made in a long time. I am looking forward to all the new possibilities it will bring me.
