You guys. I have recently been struggling with my work in regards to my relocatable-ness. To be promoted Richard and I (since we work for the same company) have to be relocate-able for 250 miles. 250 MILES PEOPLE. So if I own my home I’ll have one hell of a commute. Should I want to move up, that is. This policy has been up my ass for ever but not a threat. Until lately. My Richard is highly promotable. (Yes, I’m not. Shut up) So we have had to really think about our future and where we want to end up. 250 miles is one thing, at first. But the possibility of leaving San Diego forever is not okay with us. We aren’t SD natives, in fact it was Richard’s career that brought us here! We have not only made friends since living here, we have made family. We love these people, and moving away just isn’t an option right now. When we got here we knew almost no one. After five(?) years we have people that have replaced our family far away. We have holidays together. BBQ’s. Football (not that I get it). I cannot imagine being without them.
Tonight we celebrated Richard’s birthday. My FAMILY was out in force. I love you all so much. Thank you everyone who took the time to come out and share the day with us. Richard’s mother was there and she enjoyed meeting our San Diego friends and family.
I hope to maintain this family and live here for a while longer.
