One step closer...

In my last entry, I mentioned the one big “if” was selling my house. Well, there was another big “if”...whether work would be willing to let me flee Charlotte and still stay among the employed at XYZ Corporation. Without a job, the whole adventure would be a no go as I have virtually no hope of finding work in Asheville. Everything was riding on the outcome of the conversation.

I’m a “planner” (even when it seems like I’m being spontaneous) so I had this whole conversation in my head complete with selling points to counter any resistance. I brought up the topic with my manager and his reply, “No problem…I’ve heard Asheville is very nice”. Another hurdle down…

Now the only big “if” remaining is selling the house. Once it’s sold, adios Charlotte!

Sounds awesome - beware Daniel Day Lewis - I hear he still patrols those hills.

Re: the house - when in doubt...Craigslist! Heck, I sold a Hyundai in 3 days!
