jules Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I'm definitely going through one right now. everything in my life is changing at the same time. kid. wife. career. crazy. scary. nervousness. excitement. you've all been through it. when you know, you know your entire world is changing in front of you. you can look back and see the progress and actual steps leading to your feet on the cliff. you look back and smirk because you have no choice but to put one foot in front of the other and step off the ledge into the abyss. could be warm bath water washing over you. could be daggers in the back and a scared look back trying to cling to what was. arms akimbo. but it doesn't matter. you have to go. you have to see what's there. the next step won't be such a big deal after you're there for a few months.

sneaksta303 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I dunno your situation, but I'm in an odd one now as of today. My in-laws are losing their 150 year old house due to forclosure, which translates to - We get to look for a house to share with my fucking in-laws. My FIL is ok, but my MIL is a raging bitch at times. I'm genuinely frightened as to how this is going to effect all of our lives. We need to find at least a 4 bedroom house with a finished basement in the next month.

Well put. The comforting part (to me at least) is that there is no choice. Screw up or not, but the only thing that stands between your now you and your future you is your best self. Situations can develop very deterministic from time to time. Even though you're still free. But pussying out is not an option.

keltoi Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 i def kind of feel like i'm on some sort of precipice lately but maybe i'll leap off and start flying into the sky? lol... we've sold our flat and move out at the end of march... i'm getting all sorts of solicitor ballache from our overtly anal buyers and money is flying out of my account for legal paperwork and estate agent percentages and re-survey costs, etc. etc... we don't have anywhere sorted out to move to yet which'll cost another shitload... we just missed out on perfect house at the weekend... no2 baby is expected early march so we'll be moving 3-4 weeks after the arrival... my commute is still a pain in the arse and don't get home til late and mrs.k is heavily preggo and getting tired so i do all i can when i get home(not really complaining about this tbh she's doing all the hard work)... i'm 1 week into giving up smoking and not sleeping well at all. about the only thing stable at the moment is my work/career.
