A day in the life. . .

Let me begin with a little mush and say, I love seeing my engagement ring on my finger. I love being reminded that Robert will be my husband and that this is officialy the best period of my life yet(except being unemployed). I'm so happy everyday knowing that we're engaged, and that in almost no time at all, we'll be married. While I'm beyond excited to marry Robert, you can bet I'll take these next eight months and enjoy every part of being engaged. This time will rush by, and I want to embrace this feeling for as long as it's here. I can't believe that after all of my bad relationships, someone like Robert loves me and wants to spend his life with me. It doesn't get much better than that.

But during this period of anticipation and excitement, I have a lot of big decisions to make. Obviously graduating and getting married means I've already entered the world of adulthood, but the decisions I need to make are the kind of decisions that make me feel like I'm too young to make big decisions. I've made life changing moves before, but regardless, this is a tough one and I don't know what direction to take.

I've always said, the career means more than how much I get paid. I stand by this statement, even now. But I've realized what also matters is being able to afford to live. I'm getting married, and as much as I love my family, I don't want to get married and live at home. I want our own place- our little love nest (yeah I said it).

Now I have a real decision to make. Take an opportunity which has been presented to me here or move three hours away. Is it worth staying here or is there more for me three hours from here? I have no idea how to decide.
