It Finally Happened!
This week I made a pretty big change. I moved out of the house for the first time. For the first time in my entire life, I won't be spending every night (well, close to every night) sleeping in my dungeon of a bedroom that has no window. I'm going to miss that because now the sun coming into my bedroom will wake me up. I'm living with 5 other girls, and no guys. No more pummeling. No more seepy time. No more kitties sleeping on my throat while I'm trying to sleep. I'm going to miss it, but I need to start depending on myself. I'm going to miss my family a lot. Except for the yelling and chore lists (oh wait, still have that) and argueing over who's tv it really is (ok, might still get that too). It's a good thing I only moved 2 miles away so I can still come back and enjoy all those things whenever I want! And I won't even have to pay for laundry! I'm glad I moved out because it's nice to feel like an adult, but the Peter-Pan in all of us holds me back a little. Not very much, but it's still there. Nothing's going to be the same, but change is for the better. It gives us the chance to learn and grow in a way that we couldn't before. But now that I'm all moved out, I can spend as much time as I want with my man and no one is going to do anything about it! (just kitting mom!)

You know, I thought about that. But that's part of growing up. You have to be responsible for yourself. I'm not worried though. You man works so much he won't have time to hang around too much.
Love you!
Hey, I just saw your profile pic on TAMN's blog! HaHa, I guess I sucked you into that one! How did you get to be her friend? I'm so jealous.
Congrats on making such a monumental step. When we were there last, you hadn't quite moved out yet, but you were gone quite a bit that weekend for one reason or another. I remember feeling a void at times while hanging around the Mitchell House while you weren't there. You and your mom have always been the ones to be home when we are there, but you weren't that time and now that will be the case more often than not. What will we do? Nathan is sure to notice! Make sure you come around a lot when we come around okay?
Oh and I love how you stated that we all have a little of Peter Pan inside. I completely can relate to that. I really didn't want to grow up at many points in my life, but it's all been so worth it. Good Luck!
Don't worry, I'll still be there so that I can see all of you guys!
