Moving to the city

I have never lived in a city and I don't really want to. It kinda freaks me out living in a little square surrounded by a lot of people. But I am because it'll give me the convenience I need as a single mom with no family. Everything will be close, jobs will be available and I can make our little square cozy.

I've always lived on a few acres, usually in trees, with leaves every fall, grass to cut and wildlife around. I love it, but I don't have time or energy to maintain land, home, work and parenting.

So I'm letting it go for now.

This move will be most beneficial to my son. It's becoming so important to help him socialize and have better access to things that are fun and mind expanding.

We'll be able to afford a modest house and we WILL have a pool. We'll be in Tucson and we love the weather and the surrounding natural areas. I'm getting another van to slowly build out so one day my son can have the house and what I've saved for him, and I can live free again. Maybe I'll get a little land to park on and take care of.

Life takes turns you can never predict. Sacrifices need to be made and plans need to change. I never could live the "normal" life and always felt like I needed a way out at all times. Normal overwhelms me. So I'm really not looking forward to living that lifestyle, but I will for my son. I will because I can't fight society. So I'll play along until I know my son is good and I can get out.

Sounds like a good decision and change of scenery. Sending prayers. 🙏🏻
The last time you started over out west it was a lifetime experience for you. This time will be even better.
Let the Fox run with the coyotes. Bring the pack and all that desert mystery into the city.
