Its been a crazy few weeks, but in the end, I have a new job and I'm picking up my life in Southwest Michigan and headed across the lake to Chicago to start what I'm calling the Fourth Chapter of my life. I'm a small town gal and I have a billion things to learn about living in a city (my car! I'm scared for it), but I am extremely excited to start the next chapter in my life.
Tomorrow is my last day at my job here in Michigan. I've been here almost 8 years and its surreal that I'm leaving. My co-workers aren't the kind to make a fuss about someone moving on so I will likely slip out without too much fanfare, and honestly that's fine.
All I know is my dad is coming a week from today to help me load up my U-Haul and hit the road. My main concerns are 1) packing all my crap and 2) seeing the important people before I go. Since I only have a week left and I have to make two trips back into Chicago in that time, my days are pretty full. Part of the appeal of living in Chicago, however, is having people visit. Its incredibly hard to get people to visit you in Benton Harbor for some reason...
I plan to chronicle my transition and any City Adventures I go on here. I know this post isn't much, but that's because everything is just about to start. Stay tuned!
