Thanks, ladies! I am sure I will need to re-read this blog in the coming weeks as we all “adjust.” Another game I play with myself is “what’s the worst thing that could happen?” In the grand scheme of things, moving to a great city hardly ranks on the Big Fear list…except for the Boston drivers. You are right about that Melanie. Yikes!

Best of luck and have fun in Mass Jessie – just wish I had gotten to know you better while you were in PA. Instead, I’ll keep getting to know you through these wonderful and wise blogs.

I was hoping you were heading to the North Shore (where I live). I met Emily through work about 10 years ago, and have enjoyed the perspective you have brought to MOB over the past year. Good luck with the move, and vow that you will NEVER drive like you’re from here!

I love that you called fear out for “running the show.” So often we let fear or anger or insecurity or envy “run the show” — and never in our own best interest. You are so very brave for taking this leap — but I have no doubt you will make it work. So grateful that I wont have to “miss” you as we will all follow your journey here at MoB.

Best of luck with your move! And I totally agree that, in life, it’s often best to just jump. As you said, the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to leave whatever situation you’re in. I’ve rarely regretted the things I’ve done; more often, I regret what I DIDN’T do. Good for you for taking the leap.
