Expect more blog posts in the upcoming weeks as I attempt to demystify the process of moving to a place I've only been for 24 hours in the past. What an adventure!

Cheerio
I've been suppressing the urge to write until I officially was able to announce my big news... no, I am NOT pregnant as my coworker suspected (but yes, I will be dieting tomorrow). Rather, I am making a move across the ocean to LONDON for 6 months for my job! While I suspect it will be challenging from a work perspective, I am craving that and the change it presents (both at a professional and personal level). There is a little anxiety about repeating old patterns of moving and not settling down but the temporary nature of this secondment has led me to say yes. How's that for embracing change in 2010?

Yaaaaay!!!!
ReplyDeleteI actually think I need to start a separate blog on the whole moving to london process so that the nitty gritty details don't overcome this blog's purpose of me time. Speaking of which, yesterday, I impulsively walked from Tribecca to the UES to see Manhattan from a different angle. It was over 7 miles but felt so great to watch the city change in a few hours. I also had some great sushi alone on the way home and caught up with a good friend- great night of me time!
ReplyDeleteIn your intense hunt for understanding the culture, law structures and potential living situations in the UK - how are you maintaining your MeTime?
ReplyDeleteYou are giving yourself an adventure - I hope you're not overwhelming yourself in the process!
I'm so proud of you Rita! This is going to be a great experience (that will make all your married, kid-burdened, un-ME-living friends jealous, heehee).
ReplyDeleteNext time you decide to walk 7 miles...CALL ME! I miss your voice and we have SO much to catch up on.
