I am headed to NC at the end of this month and I am nervous about it.  Moving in wiht someone is a big step, and moving to someone with just a couple of suitcases of personal posessions and starting a new life with them 1100 miles away can be even more anxiety producing.  But we are getting along really well and I am feeling very positive about her.  We talk hours a day now. The divorce is final on the 27th and I move on the 30th of August.  Roomie (STBX) is a bit nervous too now, not having been alone for all these 32 years.  The combined light, water, sewer, trash bill this month was 315, pretty typical for a hot month, and she is worried about paying it along with the house this month.  I am gonna pitch in, I have to keep the lights on :)   It is crunch time now, trying to save every penny for the move.  I had to break down and go to the grocery store last night, needed bread and milk along with some other items.  I went ahead and splurged on pop, that will be the last time I buy soda in this house I think Well folks, glad the world exists and I am thanking God I am here today to experience this.  I have lost some friends along the way, but it has been a wonderful journey so far.  Although divorce is tragic, without all the things in my life good and bad, I would not have met my new love. Our meeting might never have happened.  And without her, life would be very empty
