OMG MAJOR LIFE CHANGE

OH.MI.GOSH.
I just got the craziest news!
I came home from being out of town this weekend and the family announced that they got orders to move to ENGLAND this summer!
FREAKING ENGLAND.
MY FAMILY.
MY HOME.
MY JOB.
I'm FREAKING out!
I'm going through so many thoughts and emotions right now. So excited for them! So excited for me! I'm free to go with them if I please. Free to stay if I please. I'll miss them, but it would be such a cool vacation to visit them.
Where will I move?
If I don't go with them to England, I'll have to move when they move anyways.
Where do I want to live? What city?
Obviously Andrew and I have done a lot of planning for the future but we're not going to live together until we're engaged.
I'm also losing one of my jobs when they move.
So terrifying.
I've already been told that if I stay I'll get an AMAZING reference from them but I love this job, I don't want to lose it. I know that this family and how we fit together, it's so rare and I've been so lucky to finally find it.
I've been with them for TWO YEARS.
And since I'll have to get another job reguardless of where I am, what and where will I get another job? What do I want to do? I should go back to school! But I've taken time off because I have to work so much to pay for living expenses.
Seriously freaking out right now. They weren't expecting to get orders (military family) to move for at least another year, year and a half at the earliest. They are so excited, and so am I. But wow, is this crazy news or what?!
So now I need ideas!
About the next chapter in my life.
& I need a passport!
I AM SO EXCITED!
and terrified.
What does my future hold now?

  1. Wow, Laurel! That is super exciting news. Can't wait to see where your adventures take you. I have to admit..I'm kinda jealous. I've always wanted to live in Europe.

    1. I always wanted to do a short term living there. Like 6 months or less. But I am completely at a loss for what to do haha. They asked me today if I'm coming and all I could commit to was "I have no idea! I'm so overwhelmed with all of the choices and changes." Because either way I'll have to move and get a new job!
