Today started off great, than by 3 or so in the afternoon, everything went down hill. Now I'm back to feeling like pooplins and I've lost all interest in anything related to Portland, looking for a job, or moving. I can't believe how quickly I can go from feeling real great about myself to feeling like shit. Guess I just have to live with that

I have no doubt you will find a great job in Portland. I also have no doubt that you are a GREAT accountant.

I know these emotional roller coster rides all too well.
The only advice I can offer is to stay focused on your primary objectives. I know it's hard when you feel defeated, as I often do, especially when it comes to my parents. (they live next door).

**hugs**

Holy Toledo Batman! Your parents live next door? That must be real hard to deal with. I mean on one hand it must be great to have the support factor of parents so nearby. On the other, and much, much bigger hand, I would be worried of them poking their noses in my business all the time.

Emo roller coasters are never fun. I don't know why I've been on one with such fantastic ups and craptastic downs lately. I think I'm just way too overwhelmed by all the upcoming stuff.

Thanx for the hugs, I can use all I can get.

You are so right. On the one hand it's great to have them close bye, BUT and it's a HUGE butt, they DO put their nose in every aspect of my business. They have actually caused me high blood pressure. The sad part is that I am 38 years old. :(

Do they at least mean good, even if it ends up causing more problems? I've got friends with parents who put their noses in their lives only to create issues and make things worse. If they have good intentions at least that is something.

Part of me is actually glad that when we move to Portland we'll be far away from family stuff. I think it will give us a greater focus on creating our own family if we don't have to deal with all our families stuff. On the other hand, my family is so close that we all get together for holidays and that will be missed. My mom has one brother and one sister and each of them have a spouse and one has three kids, the other two. Growing up we spent every Memorial day, Easter, St. Patty's day, July 4th, Labor Day, Turkey Day, Christmas together. It will be a major adjustment to not see my aunts, uncles, and cousins every month or so. I am trying to pursade my mom and sister to move to Portland with us, but I doubt they will.
