I am in New York not South Carolina–where Hannah did touch down in the Cherry Grove section of North Myrtle Beach.
I have never done an interstate move before with storage involved. I’m nervous about that. Is it a self-absorbed lu_ury to write about?.
•••••••••••
I took this post down as it was self-absorbed and whiney. Love the title however. Here’s another self-absorbed and whiney post from my little world
And, i don’t see too many people being judged for their life choices on the Internet. Why should it be different for me?
Why should I have to defend talking about my move? It would be big for anybody–for me it’s as if I’m climbing three mountain peaks.
Do you have any idea what it takes to sell at a profit in a down market? Do you have any idea what it takes to keep money coming in a stock portfolio.
I know those things aren’t important to you. They are too me as i do like to live well. Why should I be apologetic about it?
I wasn’t going to write about my move at all but quickly understand it was blog it or have a nervous breakdown. So sorry if the posts aren’t up to your standards.
Life lessons? I don’t need anymore. I’m neither shallow nor un-anaylitical. i have over analyzed my bumping into a doorknob before i knew what my problems were.
I’m moving to a place where they think you’re crazy if you don’t drive and own a car. I don’t drive and never will–not by choice but by disability. I turn it into a joke. “The world’s safer without me at the wheel.” “I’m like Stevie Wonder. If you get drunk I will drive.”
Do you understand that this really isn’t a joke? Do you understand how difficult this move is for me? I’m leaving the only city I have truly known. I’m leaving a life time of friends, family and memories.
Do you understand that the mechanics of life are much more difficult for me than for most people? Still I do what has to be done, or try.
I need peace and contentment in my life. This city is too crazy and too crazy pricey for that.
Do you understand that when you stood in judgment of me, and you did whether you can see that or not, I wanted to delete you from the everybody I know list.
This week had been about beginning to find peace and then I heard from you and wondered if I’m not understandable. I wondered if people really don’t like me or want to know me. i wondered if people find my writing boring and intolerable. Oh but unlike you I don’t peer deep into my soul. I thought you read my article on NLD. It doesn’t give me permission to abstain from life’s details, but it attempts to show who I am.
When I leave New York ne_t month I have to buy a house. I e_pect that to be easier but i’m the queen of “you never know,” as honestly I never do
I find life’s roads to be very curvy, trees over turned, shards of glass everywhere. Still I walk them.
I could spend my life self-improving or I could spend my life doing with some introspection. i chose the later. I don’t like to focus on myself as I hate becoming depressed. The pain I felt before I knew I had NLD and at various times during this year is diminishing. And like a tooth ache I can’t remember it e_actly.
Did you think you were being clever? Wise? Did you think you were going to make me look deep into myself, face me and come up with horrible truths? That I should peer into my soul and find a vapid horrible person. Honestly I like the person i see.
The one truth I know is that I’m a good person with many flaws. I have tried, more than most, to rid myself of the flaws but like the small lines on my face they aren’t going anywhere
Don’t read my blog if you no longer like my writing. I could ask you many questions about your present life but I choose not to.
You might have accomplished what many have tried. Blogging should be a pleasant e_perience. A nothing personal post should be treated as one.
I’m not sure whether i will put this blog on hiatus or not. You really did succeed in make me feel boring and that I have nothing worth saying.

Yesterday I crossed the park to the discount high fashion optician. I whispered “do you have Sarah Palin’s glasses.” They were aghast as they hate…but I ended up buying similiar but nicer ones. I had taped the prior night’s Letterman and found it hysterical when he said “wouldn’t Sarah Palin make a great commercial for LensCrafters?”
Then I went for a pedicure as I really couldn’t stand my clear tinged with pink toes. I got deep red. As I looked at the woman ne_t to me who was getting clear tinged with pink…I wanted her color. Then I realized I suffer from pedicure envy.
“I find life’s roads to be very curvy, trees over turned, shards of glass everywhere. Still I walk them.” This line sums up exactly how I feel this day!
I was just reading about Hanna. Hope you’re safe.
Pia, firstly I’m glad to read that you’re in New York. Secondly, you should write about whatever you want without worry of being judged. Your writing – no matter what you choose to write about has always been honest and made me think, often entertaining at the same time. More than I can say for most.
It must be an anxious time for us Cancerians.
