Life has turned upside down and inside out for this girl.
And I have to give all glory to God for kicking me out of the nest without a hint of subtlety.
Things with the Boyfriend are officially over. It is awful, and heartbreaking and I sit up at night exhausted, but too sad to sleep. And yet, I know it is exactly what God wills right now. So I am praying for his peace.
I greatly appreciate all of your guys' support, prayers, sweet comments and lovely emails. I am totally amazed by the dedication of my "online friends."
God also provided me an escape from a mediocre job and Small Town. While I love the adventures, wildlife and constant funny stories Small Town brings me, there is no reason to stay here if I am not with the Boyfriend. Not only that, but I run into mutual friends and his family every where I go. I know that my heart cannot handle one day running into him and his new girlfriend.
God is so gracious. He provided me an opportunity without me forcing anything. I didn't have to apply to all 15 of the jobs I applied for and never heard from. I didn't have to worry and stress over where I would be. He had it all under control.
Without further ado, here is the official announcement:
October 2009, on an Argosy harbor cruise.
Seattle, Washington... Here I come!
