    It is happening

    We are getting close to closing the distance. Many of you will remember last year that my SO was offered his dream job, in NY. HE promised me he would be here in a year. He's had an initial interview for a transfer with his company, but we haven't heard anything yet (his interview process for his current position was four months, so it's not strange to not have heard anything yet).

    Regardless of that, we are closing the distance. He's rented his house starting the end of January, and he is packing up and moving to Georgia. He will actually commute back and forth. He will fly home on Friday, then back to NY on Sunday evening or Monday morning. During the week he will stay at his moms house. I know this isn't an ideal situation, but the fact that he is willing to do this for me is amazing. Financially, he will actually be better off. The rent covers the mortgage, and he won't have all of the household bills he currently has....plus, Mr Superstar just got an unexpected raise. I don't want him to leave this company, they are GOOD to him and he is making a name for himself. This is a company to stay with until he retires.....so for now, he will be officially living on Ga....but working in NY. He must really love me to do this for me. . I am SO HAPPY.

              Thanks all. I was a little envious every time I heard someone was closing the distance. I knew it would be my time eventually. Perseverance is tough, but worth it.

                    Here's hoping the move goes smoothly and that the commute will be okay to keep up. All the best for you two!

                    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
                    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
                    The hands of the many must join as one
                    And together we'll cross the river

                            That's great!!! And, hey, if it works out better for him/you this way since he has the raise and doesn't have to pay for utilities, why not?
