Why wait?

GOOOOOD Morning twisted sisters!!!

So I had this epiphany over the weekend, why wait? What was I waiting for?
Saturday, I was just went out for lunch did my usual,lounged and thought
about how great it would be if I was already on the east coast. Then Saturday
night, I thought what to heck?? I have a long weekend coming, all I need is
48 hours to get there and a temporary apartment till I can find my home.
Now it is monday morning and in one day I have sold everything I owned,
leased an apartment, set up phone and cable at the new address but most
important of all.. I feel vibrant, alive and EXCITED!!

So just like that I am leaving THIS weekend! I am throwing all my fears and
worries in the wind and I kind of feel like I am getting a do-over, a brand
new life! So for all of you who worry, there's life after BC, BELIEVE it!

Love,
Ayse

I am thrilled beyond words ... so so so HAPPY for you, Ayse! You deserve all the best, that life has to offer you -- now, go out and get it!

    I am soooooo happy for you!! Isn't it amazing what we can accomplish once we set our minds to it? I hope the move goes smoothly. And I'd love to set a lunch/dinner date for the next time I'm in NYC.

    I KNEW you would get it!
    This is a huge step for me and I knew you would understand.
    I think unconsciously I was a little worried to make such a big
    move, so shortly after being out of treatment. But I figured I can
    sit here and fear what may come or I can simply live.

    You are ALL welcome to my home, should you be in the area. I
    would love to show you "MY" New York (:

    Hugs,

    Claudia dein deutsch ist so gut
    Vielen dank fuer all warmen wuensche. Ja alle meine monster kommen mit mir. I can't possibly
    keep them all, but I hope to find homes for them. I buried one, and that was already too much.
    So I am saving as many as I can. So if anyone wants a kitty, I will be en routee with my kitty mobile.. lol

    I am so happy that you are enjoying Wislawa Szymborska, I know she has definitely enriched my life.

    Ich schaetze deine freundschaft sehr.

    Vielen dank Schatzi!

    Ayse,
    You are such an inspiration! I have so much to do in my house, I would love to just sell, or even heave out stuff.

    Now that you'll be an east coast girl, we have to get you to Hershey in October.
