You may have seen it in Matt
mattpup's journal, but I just wanted to say it here as well. Looks like it's time to move on for the two of us. Things are not working here in Chicago. I haven't been able to find a job, we're being forced to move in a little over a month, and my unemployment will be ending soon. In about a month or so we will be moving to Cedar Rapids in with his family so we can get back on our feet.
This is very hard for me. I have spent the last 7 years here in Chicago trying to make it. I have spent countless days figuring out who I am and what I need to do to survive. I thought I had figured that out last year when I got the job with Fastenal and Matt moved in. But it just wasn't meant to be. As I type this now I am doing all that I can to not break down. I have made good friends while here, though I may not always show it. I will miss them terribly, even though I know I will be back. But it's just not the same. I'm sure I'll be making posts soon about some of them. The effects that they have had on my life, and I hope I have made changes in theirs as well. I will try to have some sort of get together before we leave, at least I hope to.
