Question for the Panel

So for those of you that know me really well...I have a question:

What do you think about me moving back to San Diego at the end of the year?

Ok keep in mind this decision OBVIOUSLY includes me securing a really good job before even considering moving back. Though take in to account the somewhat grey area between me and a certain sailor...but also all my friends (KIM!) and INCAHOOTS! haha You know I would move back just for the Hoots. lol

I realize I have a lot of opportunity right now, especially to pay off debt and get a jump start on my career, so I am not making any decisions now and waiting it out(NO RUSH). Though I trust ALL of you and just want your opinion.

I was even thinking starting Grad school, though I'd rather start in San Diego...a place I know I could remain for the years I am in school. :-)

Anyway just curious....

Tricky tricky. See, my knee-jerk reaction was, "Move back to San Diego!" because I know it would make you happy, but I'm nothing if not practical--paying off debt, accumulating some savings, job experience...that's nothing to sneeze at, even if it has to take place in Texas. BUT, if you can get a wonderful job that pays well, then all of that can be taken care of in the comfort of SD, right? I mean, I might be projecting a little bit--I could've stayed in NorCal and lived with my 'rents and saved money and stuff, but I was just so miserable not doing what I wanted to do and not being where I wanted to be that I even took a step backwards, quality of life-wise, to move here to New York so...maybe I'm not the best person to ask? Or maybe I am the best person to ask? Well, it's one of those two. Anyway, I think it's great you're in no hurry to pick one or the other. Maybe give it six more months (how long have you been at your job? rule of thumb is you shouldn't leave any job before a year, right? generally?) and then reevaluate, and if you're ready not to live in TX anymore then start looking for jobs in the SD. My humble opinion, natch! Love you Carrie--I hope whatever you do, it makes you happy.

Very good. A year is what I mentally committed to at my job; I think that's a great goal to shoot for.

Though I must admit...I am quite anxious. Need to start setting small goals so I can actually start seeing stuff happening.

Love you too!
