I am sorry that the idea of what is lost is adding to all of the already stressful things that happen this time of year. <br /><br />One year ago...you were in San Francisco with me! Can you believe it's been that long already? I can't. <br /><br />I hope in one year you will be able to look back and see how Charlotte helped you in some way. Fingers crossed!

There's no set date to look forward to, nothing telling you anything WILL actually happen. You just have to hope it will. I am just sending so many prayers that 2014 will be a beautiful year for you, with a new job offer in a city you love. The amount of crap you've had to deal with this year is insane and you just deserve a break.

There's lots of expectations for happiness, expectations to match christmases past, and it reminds of strongly of nostalgic times. I have a really hard time during the holidays being away from family, so I cover up and compensate it by schedule us full...doing the things that make me happy (decorating, baking) - but there is definitely still a void in my heart. <br /><br />Thinking of you, Lisa.

Who opened the door for her, anyway?!? ;)<br /><br />I just had words with the Universe about laying off you for a bit and allowing you to fully immense yourself into the holidays with your family. Maybe you need to tell them in advance of your trip to put the kabosh on questions about Charlotte AND questions about any impending job search / move. That way, they aren't the ones inadvertently pushing you further into your head.Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-76533875162092539512013-12-13T11:10:09.278-06:002013-12-13T11:10:09.278-06:00so if you're looking back, the choice was your...so if you're looking back, the choice was yours to move to Charlotte or get a different job.
