well shit. i left awhile ago... almost two months ago and i have been trying to settle in and not freak out too much.
before leaving the last two months can be summed up with:
packing, estate sale, cleaning, blocking out any emotions i had about leaving the house, friends, family and the dogs (dixie and delta respectively). ugh.
then i left without really accepting that i was leaving. in fact i did not tell anyone goodbye, i just said "i'll see you later"..... which is a true statement.
