Change is good sometimes. Sometimes change make us a better person, parent, child, friend, husband, wife or lover. Sometimes we're reluctant to change...maybe we're afraid of it. Maybe we don't think we need to change....but hell we know we're not perfect. Maybe we need to change to be happy. Well....I'm getting ready to make a change. Not because I had planned on it...not because I was expecting it....but because of some one's selfish reasons. Ok...this is new for me....I'm usually a private kind of person....keep things to myself....but...I'm changing that...lol. I found out about....5 weeks ago that my sperm recepient was moving to Vancouver, WA with my daughter. The biggest issue is that she was moving in less than 3 weeks....yes...they moved 2 weeks ago. Now...she strategically waited so long to tell me, which made it impossible for me to legally stop it. Although I'm not as pissed as I was...I'm still a little pissed. But I know that being pissed won't solve anything. My daughter is my pride and joy so it was a easy decision to make. I've made the decision to move as well. To Portland to be exact. As I understand, it's right across the river from Vancouver. I've been in the military and have moved several times before, but it has always been something that I thought about long and hard and planned for. Not this time. I gave myself until August....I thought that would be enough to find a job, find a place to live...and to find a good barber....can't go walking around looking like pookie from New Jack City...lol. But..thnigs have taken off a lot faster than I anticipated. I've applied for a few jobs already. Had my first phone interview last week....waiting on the second one. This company could possible want me there by the end of May....soooo...I need to get ready for it if they do. Moving to Portland honestly, is a good thing. Not only will I be closer to my daughter, but I've heard nothing but great things about the area. Friends say it rains a lot...well...I'm from Detroit....if I can handle snow...I can handle a little rain. I love wine...and there are tons of winneries on the west coast. I hear the people are friendly...and I love coffee. So I'm done being negative about this chance...I think it will be good for me and my daughter. Not sure why I decide to write this...but...why not?
