Moving
I'm moving to Victoria for work soon. Sometime this summer is the plan, and I'm having a hard time getting excited about it.
So many things are going to be good; a new job, a fresh start, a smaller city, and better standard of living for my family.
But so many things are going to be so hard too. I've lived in Van for the better part of 20 years now and it's going to be hard to just walk away from that. Most of my friends are here, I have roots in the community and various organizations, and am comfortable. Plus I'm so sick of moving. The curse of having too much stuff!
The timing is good for us as the spud is not yet in school and will most likely not even notice. And work pays for the whole thing and will help us buy a house. So it's not all bad, just a huge change and majorly disruptive.
I wonder if I'll ever be back?
