Yesterday I looked on the Trader Joe’s website and found out that there are a couple TJ’s in the Detroit metro area. Could moving there really be that bad if I can get my Pirate Booty, smart water, organic sliced mushrooms and Promax bars???

I am still feeling undecided about my future plans. I’m not feeling very settled at work lately…each day a feel twinges of job insecurity that I can’t quite put my finger on. I’m happy that Taylor’s time in Memphis is drawing short, and I’ll probably see him this weekend for our anniversary. But I won’t be able to see him for very long…and it troubles me. In my prayers and soul searching, I don’t feel like I’ve gotten a clear answer for what is the best course for my family. When I give people the 2 minute version of the decisions that I’m facing…the usual response is “Your family needs to be together, even if it means Detroit.” But the 2 minute version of the decisions I’m facing isn’t adequate to tell others of the full weight of the decision.

October will consist of a lot of researching, job-hunting, soul-searching and figuring out the best course for the Bullock family. Hooray for tough life decisions!
