Anxiously awaiting my future!

I can not wait for my future in Florida! I know everyone says to live in the moment and enjoy the now....and I do. However, I have been thinking about my future a lot. Especially since coming home a couple weeks from my solo trip. I just keep thinking of how life will be and all the new opportunities that lay ahead for me and Kayla.

Everyone keeps asking me why I want to move. I try to explain and just tell people I feel comfortable there and at "home" and peaceful. Here in Chicago I feel stuck and like I'm not allowed to be myself. I feel unsupported at times and like no one believes in me. I am 37 years old and feel a lot of times that no one sees me as an adult capable of taking care of myself and Kayla on my own. I have been critizied and ridiculed that I won't be able to do it on my own.

I have a great support system of friends in Florida who are happy that we are moving next summer. I will have that same group of friends to hang out with and do stuff with. Having a connection with other Disney people makes it fun!

So, while I am here in Chicago living my day to day life...I long for the day I wake up in Florida permanently! Some days it's a struggle, sometimes it feels so long and never-ending.
