So nice to read your update Panina! It sounds like you have really accomplished so much in so little time and your news shows how full circle you have come in this life change. Its a relief I'm sure to be where you are now but with alot of diligence, good planning and knowing the direction you wanted to take has really helped. Next, step , your step daughter. Is it possible for her to come for an extended visit to share your new home and life? Dating...take it slow. As the saying goes, life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans.Like Geekette stated so eloquently, you made the change happen . Many are too fearful of change and settle . Life is too short so like you've done, continue to embrace and enjoy your new home, neighborhood, friends, etc etc... thanks for the news. Although I don't know you, I looked for your posts!!
