North Carolina is wonderful! The mountains, the green-ness, the biodiversity! We would love to have you on the east coast! My tattoo artist is in Greensboro and my best friend just moved to Asheville so I would love to stop by from time to time and help you get acclimated haha.

I remember I found this site (not this blog, the other one) that said you were biking from Home to home. If I remember correctly, a later update talked about your injury and then you returned home and I’ve followed your journey since (not in the stalker sense… artgirl, knitgirl fan!) I am in awe at how you have evolved and totally get the next steps you need to take. If by chance you take the longer route through northern IL (near The Fold, ahem, not to temp you or anything!) and need a layover you are welcome here anytime.

Wow, I always miss the biggest news when I’m away for the holidays!

I moved to NC in 05 for school and, much like you, immediately fell in love with the region. I can totally relate to you about just how “homey” it feels.

Congratulations on gathering the courage to take this step. I wish you all the best in finishing your business in the land of corn and starting your new home.

I have Evernote on the computer and never use it. I’ve been using Basecamp, but you’ve encouraged me to try other options.
Thanks

I know how you feel about home. My family lives in a different area of the country but I love where I live – snow, mountains, clear fresh air. Good for you – life is short – follow your heart – be happy.

I am so relieved for you. Granted I know I’m projecting a lot of what I think I know about you and your situation on the whole thing, but I am still so glad you’ve finally gotten to *that place*. I’m so glad you understand that you are worth so much more. There are a *lot* of people who love you, even though we’ve never met you. We care for you and want you to be happy. (which, from what I know, which granted, ain’t much, is more than you are getting from the person who should be expressing that the most. Did that even make sense??)

Hey!

Come on down to North Carolina. I am over in Apex…about 90 minutes from GSO. I love it. NC is fun with a lot of bigger cities close by so if you don’t like what is happening in your neighborhood, roll about 45-60 miles and there is something else going on.

However, do be forewarned. We have BIG TIME allergens here in NC….ragweed in the fall and pollen that turns EVERYTHING yellow. Everyone runs around hyped on Benadryl and Sudafed!

Best wishes and holler if you want some info. My ‘rents are in High Point and I am over here near Raleigh so we have a good chunk of the state covered!!!

Life is too short to be unhappy and I really admire you for having the strength to just up and go. It’s a huge change but it will be so worth it.

(MINUS THREE? That is just wrong.)

Good luck to you. As a born and bred Tarheel, you couldn’t have picked a nicer place. Plus, selfish thought here – you could go to SAFF!

You must always follow the heart – the head tends to be right behind anyway!
