I just re-read my last entry and it’s certainly been a minute! Ten months ago, we moved out – and by “we” I mean me and Teagan. We have a cute rental in Vista that’s 3 doors down from one of my best friends and a short 10-minute drive to T’s dad’s house.
I kicked off 2021 with a personal commitment to transition from a contractor to FTE so that I’d be approved to rent. I did that. Then, I drafted my own legal documents (with help from my pal, a paralegal in Wisco), retained an attorney to formalize the custody agreement and took on a side hustle as a wellness educator for the US Border Patrol to make ends meet. Although I am proud that I didn’t let financial fear effect my decision to leave, it’s a struggle now that my expenses have nearly doubled -- well, not a struggle struggle -- just not the same life that I had built for myself and want for me and T. We are still in quarantine (ish) which I doubt I touched on in prior posts. Let's see how this goes.
