Nin and Foster's Road to ...

Life can throw a few curve balls. It sucks (lemons) but what can you do? Turn it into a party, is what! 

We may be unemployed, but we have been so very miserable for so long that the stress of this is not what you would expect. I was literally waking up sick in the middle of the night at the thought of going to work.

Now the world is open to us! There is some money coming to us so if we can just make it through the next few weeks of struggle then we will be fine. Already we are taking advantage and really trying to establish what it is we want the next step to be.

I have lingering guilt about quitting, but the fact is that the job was harming my health more than I can say. Why are we conditioned to believe we need to stay in a bad situation rather than take a chance? I know there are people who will think that I was better off staying miserable. Whatever. I let that way of thinking hold me back for far too long.

We are to have lots of new products in the shop, lots more writing, Melina will be painting. We may even end up living somewhere else in a year or two dot dot dot. 

No spoilers! But the doors are flung wide open, and that is how I insist on seeing it.
