next steps

so i can't believe it ... but already i have started my next escapade ... i'm guessing it is going to be another 'ride' that will teach me a whole lot about myself .. what i want, what i don't want out of life. i'm pretty sure that every experience since college has helped me to find myself - who i am, what i'm looking for, and more importantly what i excel at. i've come to realize that the typical 'office job' does not fit me ... nor will it ever. so i've decided to make some pretty drastic changes.

in the next few days i will be officially out of portland. moving to seattle but taking a brief 'pit stop' at my rents place to gather my thoughts and make some necessary plans. i'm pretty much excited, nervous, anxious, and really any other feeling that might be the root of 'EEEEk' because i'm hoping that i am moving in the right direction. i'm sure it's the right thing to do .... but i also know that you never know anything until you've tried it.

so in the spirit of trying everything once ... here it goes - me in seattle, working as a nanny and going back to school to do something that i've wanted to do for quite some time. i'm excited. i'm ready. i'm happy.

i'll write more as this next move unfolds ... to share the experience. the realizations. and the tribulations ... because i'm sure there are bound to be a few.

wish me luck ... i just may need it ; )
