Hi guys,
great story that I have enjoyed very much.It has been a long time since I have been a kid but I could relate since I am looking to make some major changes in my life. It also gave me hope for my plans to move to California and start anew so thank you so much Grasshopper!!!!Hoping for San Diego but will go where I find a job I guess so wish me luck ::-)

Starting anew sounds good, and, somehow, drastic. What are you moving form and what do you intend to make your new life when you move?

Hi Timmy, thanks for the post. Yeah it might seem drastic but I found myself doing the same thing over and over again expecting different result (definition of insanity)so breaking the circle, and excepting new realities of my life is something I am looking forward to. To explain, in short, I had a major health scare and even though I got trough it I still let it keep me from living my life and that is about to change. I think new environment might be good for me and force me out of complacency. Will see what happens Cool

I used to chat with him daily. Now I maybe see him every six weeks or so. Real life has taken over, no bad thing, that, and in a good way though he has not been specific about the exact way. I know answering emails is so rare as to be not a thing to hope for. SO we must just trust that he is safe, well and at least content.
