Big Changes

Wow it has been a really long time since I posted anything. Many of you know I have allot of big changes getting ready to happen in my life.

We are almost at the one month point until I get married. The wedding is set for July 17th in Gatlinburg TN. And a one week honeymoon to follow in Pigeon Forge at a Majestic Mountain Vacations Cabin Or at least they call these places cabins I am not so sure they should be called cabins. More like a self contained resort ie. the one we are staying in has a pool right in the cabin.

As if the marriage was not enough after we are married I am moving about 650 miles away from my hometown and my folks to Georgia. We will be living in Griffin Georgia depending on where I get work that may or may not change.

Speaking of work the biggest stressful factor in all these changes is the fact that I am moving so far away and will be unemployed. I gave my boss / friend (I have worked for him for about 12 years now) notice about a month ago so he would have time to make changes if he needed too. But I am walking away from a perfectly good job that for the most part I like. The last time I walked away from a job and did not have another one lined up I was about 24 years old I believe. Yes it is true my new wife will be working and I am sure we will be ok if I am with out work for a little while. However from a mans point of view it is very emasculating to think that my savings may run out before I find work and I might have to depend on my new wife for support. My hope is I will not be with out work of some type for more then a month. I remember my days of flipping burgers and I am sure my wrist can still handle that type of work if that's what I have to do. But in this great economy we have you never know.

On the bright side of things I will be spending allot more time with the woman I love and her son. We have a beautiful little house with a HUGE yard for me to take care of. I am sure her dad will be glad to see me get down there so he can let me do the grass mowing and stop doing it himself.

I am pretty well stressed and feeling overwhelmed but I am also looking forward to getting on with a "family life" at almost 40 years old I never realized how much I wanted a family I must say I like the thought of it and am looking forward to it with excitement!

I'm out for now I will keep you posted how things are going!
