Remember The Cloud? Well I think it just wiggled. It hasn't started moving yet, but something's afoot.
Remember The Captain's desires for this next season? Well something big happened on that front this week. It's not really blog-able, which is why I'm being vague and blogging around the issue.
The thing about transition is, even if you know you can't anticipate what will happen next, you try. I have a whole list of next-season scenarios that I'd be ready to embrace. I have a number of locations I'd be interested in moving to. But, just like we thought it would, this opportunity has come totally from left field.
I'm not a sports person, and I don't know which sport "left field" comes from, but in my mind's eye I just see myself standing, oblivious, on a sport field (soccer? football? baseball?) when WHAM, I get hit in the head with the ball. That's about how left field is feeling for me right now. The whole star-halo around the comic book character image comes to mind.
This opportunity could be great, but it is not what I had imagined. This opportunity could be amazing for The Captain, but present major roadblocks to what I want next for our family.
I'm not really sure what happens next in terms of us working out whether or not this change might be right for us. At the moment I am so homesick that I'm having trouble being objective. I've really been missing Nashville for awhile, and really missing my family.
I'm just trying to get quiet inside so I can hear whatever I need to hear next. I'll keep you posted, as best I can.
